Adv Duration 296/310
@0.050" 234/242
lift .568"/.544" w/1.6 rockers
LSA 112*
ICL 108*

This is a custom ground cam that I had ground for a customers 383 LT1 with the same type of components. This cam can be used with N2O up to a 400 shot if you would want to get real nasty!

He didn't tune his computer for the new engine and was hitting the rev limiter at 5500 rpm. At the high altitude (5,820 ft actual elevation) Bandemere Speedway in Denver, CO, he ran a 12.75 sec 1/4 mile. His 97' SS weighed 3520 lbs. without him in the car. He was running a TH-400 w/trans brake and a 3500 stall converter. He had a 10 point roll cage in his car and full street trim interior. He had converted his front suspension over to the Hal QA1 coilovers, subframe conectors, lower control arms, BMR rear drag lauch sway bar, Curry GM 12 bolt w/3.73 gears, Hal QA1 rear shocks, softer rate rear coil springs, Jegsteer rear torque arm kit, Hoosier Quick Time Pro Drag Radial 27x10.5x15 tires, and Weld Pro Star Rims.

If you do the math that is a preaty quick pass for a limited motor only pass. The camshaft pulls very, very hard. It is not a GM847 cam by any means.

Daily Driver or all out street strip. Although they may be the same to some of us, What type of heads? Hydraulic or Solid ? What type of future mods or applications?

The car is not driven much but would like good street manners. The heads are GM LT4 and it is hyd. The car is running nitrous.
