Any guesses at how much power I'm making? Here is a list of the mods I have.

1995 camaro LT1 with 118,000 miles but 20k on the rebuild.
SLP cold air intake
Trick flow elbow intake
Comp Cam 212/218 duration and .488/.495 lift
LT1 block bored .40 over
Hooker aerochamber cat back.
Shaved heads

300-330 to the wheels.

sounds similar to my old build. i dont see headers so im guessing 250-260 rwhp, 270-280 rwtq

Yeah the headers are next on my list, should have them some time in the next 2 weeks installed. Trying to decide if I should go with Hooker long tubes....

Why such a small cam?

You mean bored .040 over?
If its an auto I'd say around 245ish, M6 around 265 or so...

305rwhp is what I give you. With headers 315rwhp-320rwhp...

Am I missing something?


That cam is hardly more than stock, all he has is milled heads, CAI, and catback?

270rwhp, w/ headers maybe 295???

Get a set of LT's and a ory, also some rocker arms. If you did both you could gain 30rwhp or close to it with PCM tune

all numbers based on a m6 car.

I dynoed my 95z it has 140k on stock motor and transmission. My mods are eBay cai and no cat. I wanted to see before and after numbers so...but yeah it got 260 wrhp and 300 rwt on a 75 degree out day in MN.

So I'm sure your looking at a little more than those numbers at least.

Small cams work great in lt1's. The fastest cam only lt1 ran a 210/224 for the longest time.

What it should have read:

Curious as to why some people do head and cam work no matter how small and dont touch the stock exhaust manifolds.

Maybe 15 to 20 HP on a good day !! LOL

The crane 227 is still the favorite cam I ever had in my car. Awesome street manners and power to back it up. I can't get the idea of putting one back in my car out of my head either.

Well my dad and I rebuilt the engine and thought we might as well do some work to it. Since it's a daily we didn't want to go crazy with it just yet. I had to stop driving it while I was in college but now I'm back so that's why the headers have not gone on yet.

nw280zguy

Oops I also messed up on the lift specs. .500/.510 and the valves are 2.02/1.60
I have had several people recommend a tune after the headers. Is there anything else I should do?

you should have a tune now but might as well wait after the headers...

roadtrip put down 330rwhp with bolt-ons only, six speed of course.

I say 320-330 w/headers and a tune.
