If I get ls6 cams and ported and pollished ls6 heads, would that be a good idea. I wanna get it to oer 400rwhp. I have flowmasters and a short throw shifter right now cause I recently got it.

First of all, u want ONE cam...not cams...

and yeah, that should be a very nice setup with the right supporting mods...

I would go for a bigger cam but that is just my opinion. The Ls6 has like a little more duration and a little more lift I think. I would atleast get in the high 220s or low 230s but that is just me.

do you have full exhaust yet? or r u planning on it?

i would do a bigger cam as well, thats a lot of work for a little tiny cam. do at least something in the .580's for lift. but yes you are on the right track. ls6 intake and heads plus a nice street cam will get you a very stout street beater.

Its a firehawk so it came with the slp catback. I got flowmasters threw them in there did nothing else to exhaust.

Any suggestions?

It depends on how you want the car to drive. For me, my number one goal when I did my last cam install was drivablity (and CA smog). I did the TR224 even split on a 114lsa, and I absolutely loved it. Just enough lope to hear, but nothing close to the surging or stalling issues people with larger cams get. Fired right up in the morning, and drove with no worries.

Well its not gona be a daily driver until maybe next year ( Have another car ).

brian_rs/ss

thats no where near full exhaust. i would do LT's, y-pipe, and flowmaster merge before anything else. then maybe a 224r or 228r. those two are my personal favorites for the street. simple, straight forward, make gobbs of torque and ive seen people that have taken 'little' cams like those and done awesome things.

Man Ima just go with you because I looked at the video's in your signature and your camaro is a bad ***!!!!

[EDIT brian_rs/ss, not vetteboy] made a pretty good suggestion. The 228R can get you 400 RWHP, the 224R might do it, and the LS6 cam (02+) will probably only get you in the high 300's. Also the 2000 has the LS1 intake, so you ought to look for something better, and add some headers...

What gears do you have?

vetteboy99

I have stock gears

vetteboy99

any one have any Idea where I can get a 228r. I might get some lt's later.

go to texas speed webstore,look at heads and cam kits. what tranny do you have?do you have a ls6 intake?

vetteboy99

Well I went the to texas speed webstore and it lookes like I am ordering the 112 Degree 228/228 .588/.588. and then some LT's. And maybe a ls6 intake, ls6 intake manifold, and ls6 heads. And that would be good for a long time.

You can find the 228R here:

hahahha thats excactly what I was lookin at.

brian_rs/ss

the 224r will get 400+ with 243's. and of course supporting mods like injectors, intake, tb, FULL EXHAUST etc etc. the 228r will actually produce very similar numbers it will just respond better to bigger heads, ie AFR 205's or maybe even milled 210's. but again these two cams were design for the street, they have a killer mid range torque band, and you can keep the cam and still take your set up to pretty crazy numbers.

FUN LS1

yeah, that was the might part, lol

How fast are you looking to buy? My buddy will be selling one sometime soon. It's a 228R on a 112. It's a nice street cam but I spec'd him out a cam to match his new setup I'm building for him

vetteboy99

Man Really i am not in a hurry at all. I just want a cam to have a nice t/a. I'll buy it. Just give me a price.
