Default Big cam test

So.....somone on here is letting me use there Trex cam to dyno in my car. This is going to be in a few weeks coming up soon. Probally a friday night or a sat, depending on when I can use the dyno, and Mike can be there to retune if needed. My car is really easy to work on, and can change cams right on the dyno fast for this same day testing. I'd like to see what some other cams do, so if you have a 3bolt LS1 cam and want to see how it dose to other cams. Big donkey dick cams, or 224 guys. Looking more for big street cams, g5x3, MS4,...
Let me borrow it and you will find out


This with be with a fast intake, and stock heads. Not my super victor, I dont think anyone is going to have a cam for that style intake anyway.



So far 1st test will be my street sweeper cam I still have in the car (after I do a oil change) Its strait up right now. Spring time I'm gona retard it and soo what it dose on the dyno, and track. I can drive the car so its always over 5K, and strait up its not going any faster shifting over 6400. I'd like do see how much it gains at the track with more powerband. (< 7K)

Streetsweeper
236/240* .630 .612 LSA 111+2


Trex
242/248* .615 .615 I belive?

I think theres a new Hellion, I'd have to buy (at cost) I could sell after. Ive wanted to try that for a while now. Bigger then the streetsweeper, it fits stock heads.
244/248* .630/.630112 LSA

If i had my motor apart I'd give ya my cam to try, but something tells me that you'd have p to v clearance issues.

That 244/248 is really close to what I have... but I can't see it clearing the stock heads. That cam and your super victor would probably work, but be ready to turn it to way more rpm then I'd want to turn a stock shortblock to.
