In the REAL world, highest i've seen was an FM10 cam, made 412 rwhp on stock LS1 heads....On the internet where people play all the BS tricks, who knows.....

You should clarify your definition of "cam only" because some people will try and compare their LS6 "cam only" which is not apples/apples...

Mid 430's I would guess.Stock heads,stock bottom end.
As in just sliding a cam in a stock motor.

Yes, those are *internet number*

I think the highest independant numbers are 410ish.

I made 409/386 G5X2 (M6)
That seems to be high for Chicago numbers.FWIW

I think I have one of the highest Hot Cam dyno queens - 391rwhp & 371rwtq SAE. Without locking the converter. Every car I've seen over 400rwhp had heads or a power adder.

As brandon said.. numbers in sig.. I'd like to think with 01-02 heads I'd have dynod a few more, but this ain't going to be no dyno queen anyways! I think the Futral cams tend to make a lil better torque than some competitors, dyno is in sig.. actually not all that huge of a cam (236/239 .601/.610 111lsa). I think t-rex has the highest dyno thus far, but that freakass car also dynod higher with an ls6 cam than most people dyno with some big lopey cams

No, just doing a little R&D. This is one of our first bolt in cams, and has a lot of p-v, and is making as good or better than most everything mentioned here. We will probably post up more information later today...

Oh, and I forgot to mention that our car is a 99 with a full exhaust. So this should be a pretty sick cam.
