carbed ls1 cam question
hello all im looking for cam ideas...
what i have is a ls1 with flat tops, trick flow 215 cnc heads,
400 turbo trans in a 72 chevelle with a 373 gear
i plant to run the victor intake and the msd 6010 box
also a stall say around 3800 ???
i have not bought valve springs yet and i dont want to fly cut my pistons either, car will not be a dd just a weekend street strip car, looking for most power and the famous thump.
what would be a good cam for me???
ive been reading lower lsa is better? say around 110
i was orginally intrested in
the ms3 cam 237/242 .603"/.609 111
or the Vindicator cam 240/244 .608/.596 112+4

Are those stock LS1 pistons without valve reliefs?
It's true that you want a more narrow LSA. This is because you generally want to open the intake valve sooner and close it sooner than a traditional cam for a EFI intake, but doing so will cause P to V issues if you have stock pistons.
