Now I need a max effort n/a setup for my LS7 and shoot for 640-650rwhp. I will document my results there too-

Checkout the RHS LS7 heads. Not sure what your budget is, but Chris Frank has several programs for the RHS heads. He stated over on YB that his RHS worked heads produced about 30 more HP over MAST 305cc heads.

Glad to hear BC g6x3 is a first choice, & i dd my car during summer. Luckily I'm not to far from a few great tuners. Ecs, csp, cartek, ttp, vette doctors. How much clearance did you have with your tfs? I have tfs 225s milled to 58cc, I was hoping I could go with G6X3 and no fly cutting.

As for your ls7 build, good luck and keep us posted! I don't think those#should be to hard. Are you planning on porting ls7s or are you going with tfs again?

Is the G6x3 cam a cathedral port specific cam or is it designed for square ports?

I looked on the LG website, and it says the G5 series cams were designed around the LS1, LS6, and LS2 engines, while the G6 series cams were designed to work with the LS3 engines. It goes on to say the G7 series cams were designed to work for the LS7 engines. While that may be true, it sure as hell seems that G6x3 cam worked quite well with the TFS cathedral port heads. Hell, maybe Louis himself will come into this thread and drop some knowledge on us.

Seems like the G5/6x cams with aftermarket heads always puts down a good number and et. Any "black magic" behind these cam profiles? Are they ground on proprietary lobe profiles, or standard Comp lobes?

I'm on my 2nd LS7 and have had 3 sets of heads on my 2 cars. The first 2 sets of heads were stockers ported by Chris Frank, the third (my current setup) is stockers ported by PRC on their 265 program. What I have learned:

1) PRC's out performed the CF heads everywhere. HP and Torque.

2) In my 3 setups, I've run 2 cams a 235/251 (run first on my first setup, and run now on my current setup) on LSL's- producing 554/490 with Chris Frank heads and producing 573/507 with the PRC's. My other cam was a Martin @ Tick special 251/269 .701/.670 on a 114+4 and laid down 570/490 with the CF heads. It was a max effort cam, that was really pretty street friendly for its size. Martin @Tick is the man for cams IMO.

3) I'd pay close attention to valve selection and spring selection for a Max effort. I'd really consider Titanium exhaust valves to go wth your Stock Titanium intakes to keep the events stable.

4) MSD intake w/ a NW 102 seems to be the future for the LS7 intake wise.

Where the CF heads ported stockers? The PRC heads were ported stockers you said?

That is interesting...

Have you tried any of the Ragin Racin cams? Or anything from Raymer?

Yes, all th heads have been stock LS7's that were ported. Few people take advantage of PRC's program, but they will use their programs on stock heads.

No I sure haven't used any cams from Randy at Ragin, and I'm not familiar with Raymer.

A lot of good info right there. Still in research mode but I have 2 questions.

Why not using AI for porting the stockers? How much did you mill them?

I'll find a way to get to 630whp but it will take every little detail with 93.

They were for square port LS3's but with the 6.0 and TFS 225 they work very well.

I keep hearing similar stories like this. His CNC guy does beautiful work but Chris' heads just don't seem to make power.
