Default 98 SS A4, LS6 W/ GM ASA cam

Finally got my car finished (for now). G-force installed the motor and dyno tuned it. The motor is a stock LS6 with the GM ASA 226/236 525/525 cam. The Car is a A4 with a 2800 stall converter. The car made 378rwhp and 388tq. The car is my daily driver and drives like stock, still getting 24mpg.

Nice. Glad to see you are getting good power from a mild cam. Now se what she does at the track.

An ASA cam will hardly "drive like stock", especially in an A4.

BUT, they are AWESOME cams that make one of the most beautiful TQ curves I've ever seen in an LSX engine. One of my all time favorite cams.

With some beefier springs, some 1.8 or 1.85 roller rockers would really make that cam shine

I bought the cam used. The torque curve is awesome ill scan the graph and post it in here. Against the advice of EVERYONE i replaced my borla cat back with Dynomax super turbo. The borla was beating my ears to death cruising to work everyday. The dynomax actually has a nice sound to it and at cruising speeds there is no drone at all.

Nice numbers, I have this cam in an LS2 in my 68 Camaro but don't have it running yet. Curious to see what it does in an LS2 with some minor port work and a 750hp carb. Post up some vids.
