I have had 3 cams.
221/221 .558/558 @112
232/232 .595/.585 @112
237/242 .604/.609 @113
Assuming the only thing I changed were cams and tune...the 221/221 would match the other 2 larger cams down low and part of the midrange....up top it has no chance.
But also it isnt as loud and drove a bit smoother through my Auto.
1992 Camaro.
LS1 is from a 2001 firebird.(+T56 Mag-F)216/220 0.600/0.600 112 Lsa cam.(TSP Stage 2 truck cam high lift)Long tubes + dual 3in + 2 Vibrant Bullet mufflers + SpinTech 3000 muffler with side exist exhaust.Crank scraper from Improved racingATI diaper, 10% under drive.Other than that, it's a basic LS1.
Bumping 15 year old threads is cool and all but dont do it
Well the fact that I was on this thread before I modified my LS1 means the information here was useful to me. I wanted to make sure that other people in the future could use the information for their own builds.
I had an ls1 with a 222/228 113 lunati cam, stock ebay 799 heads and an ls6 intake. Longtubes and a 3" magnaflow catback. That combo made 370 tire through street tires a 4l60e and a 10 bolt.
Life is full of data points. Some more useful than others. Those fifteen or more UNTOUCHED years old, not so much....
You can be wrong, that's alright. So are you the one that gets to decide when a thread should die or based on your logic, if I feel like a thread is old in 15 minutes, I should start a new one?

Your thought is definitely not a useful datapoint
A lot happens and goes obsolete in 15 YEARS. 15 minutes, not so much. Mavn is right...

Haha!
Pretty much most of the cars and engines we play with here are over 15 years old and obsolete.
Nothing wrong with stirring up old conversations.
I dont see the problem, it's not like were leaving the refrigerator door open.

LOLOL no, literally the whole point of this thread has not went obsolete.. considering people are still building LS engines, which we could say are obsolete since they aren't made anymore. Let's shut the entire site down I guess.
People are still buying LS engines and wanting to use them in their hot rods or heck buying gen 4 camaros/corvettes and wanting to throw a cam in it. 99 percent of cams haven't changed since then.
Mavn knows of which he speaks. You don't, apparently.
Take it from a boomer....
sips monster zero*, YEP these kids can't appreciate car forums. They should go to Facebook where all those the youngins go.
-HOW TO COOK baked beans, Cathy, Cathy! how do I turn this speech thing off... This dang phone is typing what I'm saying WHAT BUTTON IS THAT?
-If you can't spin the tires at 60mph you haven't done enough work.
-69 Camaro for the weekends
-2012 SS daily
RAV4 For the oL' ball and chain
-class of 1975
There's so much sand in places there shouldn't be its amazing. Bubba has his new 220 cam and is the new hotness and ignores people who've been building for decades. Snowflakes FTW!
Wow I think yall are making it more apparent that you don't know what you're talking about. Even if you have experience with 100 different engines.. that's what this is for. To see the culminating experiences in one spot.
99.9% of the combos in here are still being used today, for guys doing basic research to see if that cam will work for them.. or to get an idea how a cam might perform in that range with specific heads/intake etc.
