Gm Hot cam or ASA cam ? Out of these TWO cams which would be better as a dd and would make better power. Doing tight budget build so going with one of these since I have a new set of ls6 springs.
Thanks Raul

I'm in the same boat. I had convinced myself that the ASA cam would meet my needs, but now I'm not so sure.
So in answer to your question, I would pick the ASA over the Hot Cam.

I've had good luck with my ASA cam. Driveability is good, and it has a broad tq curve. Just added a set of GMPP LS6 heads and put down 445rwhp & 408rwtq. Before the heads it did 393rwhp & 383 rwtq.

Im running an ASA cam in my LQ4 DD. Sounds bad ***, has good street manners and pulls like a motha when you stand on it.
Ive only had the motor in my car for a couple weeks, but I can tell you its a bitch to tune. I got it dyno tuned last Tuesday and Im going back to the tuner Monday.
Runs great, just having some idling issues.

I have said in the past...
I had the ASA cam, and the only thing that was cool about it was the sound. The performance was less than impressive and not worth it for what I lost in driveability.
Granted I was running a 3" y to gmmg, maybe I would have had better luck with true duals. Either way, I wouldn't recommend it

I am in the same boat as you are my friend but personally I just ordered the hot cam and lifter kit for the price and from what I have read it puts down some decent numbers as well.
