Lq4 cam and intake questions.
#3
I would hope to get somewhere around 400hp to the crank? And the reason I'm going with the lq4 is the eventual plan to boost the motor. However much it makes before I boost it, it should still be fun in a little 2wd s10 with a 6sp.

well the ls6 cam is a great boost cam. the truck intake flows a tad better than the ls6 manifold. if your going to boost then who cares what its making right now. typically in an ls1 people will see abt 20+hp and the intake usually adds abt 15hp. op is right though. if anything put the 317's to the side and get something with a smaller chamber like maybe a stock 5.3 and raise the compression until you do get ready to boost. hope this helped
