cheaper isnt always better. you need to figure out what you want out of your car. i dont really drive my car too much anymore and it sees a decent amount of track time so i wanted a pretty good sized cam that was still streetable.

mine is an FMS cam. Allan was great to deal with. i like it. still trying to work out all the little bugs but once i get it on the dyno and see were the power curve falls then i can figure out my shift points.

i was more than happy with FMS. they dont list lt1 cams on their site but they have them you just have to call, email or pm them. they arent as $$$ as their ls1 cams either

I like Comp Cams. Check their website for the Tech line and talk to them. Good advice - I am happy with my street roller, 230/236.

Comp cams are fine BUT their tech line is not. If you want a custom Comp call Advanced Induction or Combination Motorsports or I am sure half a dozen other sponsors of this forum for help in selecting the specs right for you application.

Lazer Cams cut both of mine...I enjoyed talking with them and going over my plans and have been very impressed with the results of my first cam. I just ordered a new one and will be installing it very soon. I paid $289 each
