Blower cam: LS6 vs. 224/228 114lsa I'm trying to figure out if it's worth swapping cams in my motor. I have an '02 LS6 with an M6 that is in my '67 Camaro RS. I am waiting for my mp122 Magnacharger to arrive, and I am getting my car ready for the blower. I have a new set of heads and headers that I will install with the blower Here's what my setup will be:
2002 LS6 & M6
Patriot LQ9 stage 2 heads w/ 72cc chambers
2002 LS6 cam
1 3/4" stainless works long tubes
2 1/2" x-pipe dual exhaust
4.11 rear gears
I am considering swapping my LS6 cam for a 224/228 114 on XER lobes. I guess I'm trying to figure out what kind of power gains I can expect from the swap, and how it will effect my powerband/drivability. I have been told the LS6 cam is a great blower cam, so I'm kind of tempted to leave it in. At the same time, I want to take advantage of the Patriot heads and blower. Any suggestions? Thanks,
Andy
