OK, so my 98 SS m6 is stock with the exception of borla exhaust and an slp lid.
This winter, I will be purchasing an MS4 cam, springs, and pushrods ls7 lifters, oil pump, ls2 timing chain, pacesetter LT headers / y-pipe and the other necessary items that come to mind.

I am choosing this cam because I like the sound it seems to give with the borla. I will be doing heads in the future after the cam, but not this winter.

My question is with a ms4 cam only, what would be some possible rwhp and 1/4th times? I have searched videos, and other threads, but I see more of "No heads? Go with a smaller cam to get more power", instead of times with the ms4. Any info would be great!

personally im a big fan of the ms3
bigger cam, but the PVC is still ok with stock bottom end
friend of mine is running 10.3's in the 1/4 with a stock bottom end ls1 with ms3 cam, stage 2.5 texas speed 5.3l truck heads, 175 shot, through an auto.
before spray hes pushing 46x to the wheels.

with just the ms4 cam, supporting mods, and exhaust youll be looking at between 370whp-410whp depending on the tune.

you need a gear to run that cam...and heads to get its full potential. Go smaller if funds dont allow you to do the supporting mods.
