Katech's K. spec cam ? Anyone have a video clip of how it sounds ???
I would like to hear it in an LS1 with a Y pipe since thats what I have.
Looks like a very nice cam, 229 / 229 @ .050, .576 / .576 lift, 116 LSA
And it might be a little stealth

We usually run these in 408s or 427s. Going to have to check PtoV on a stock piston 346. It idles pretty smooth with a noticeable lope on larger engines.

I am looking at this cam for a 427 shortblock, to replace my aging and much experimented on factory shortblock....
Given the mild lift numbers I am hoping it does NOT cause a ton of valve-train noise...

Freind of mine might be getting the Stage II kit for his stock longblock LS6. He does not want anything crazy, but I think this is a nice cam for a DD no? The LSA and duration look like they should be low speed and emmisions freindly.
I looked on the KATECH website and the STG1 looks a bit mild for what he wants (like 410+WHP with complete exhaust and intake work). He does not mind a bit of a lope at all. He got the loudest damn cat-back he could anyway LOL.
Hey KATECH, do you guys recomend any shops in Phoenix for installs?

Full exsaust, ported TB, Lid,etc should be in the 370-380 range AFAIK. Mild cam should be a nice way to utilize the LS6 heads for another 20 or 30. There's always pulleys and other little tricks.

Depends on whose chassis dyno you're on

Most 224 cams here in AZ put down 370-375ish rwhp. So probably real close to 400rwhp. Make sure Nic tunes it, hes the MAN.

Oh wow, I love these specs, I know stuffing it in a stock cubed stock head LS1 it wouldn't be the best.. but I'm kinda wondering what it would be like.
