Default Cam only LS6 Vette, Nice results

Car. 2004 C5 Z06. Mods.
Before mods were a cold air and exhaust and that's it.

We did the cam, a set of American Racing Race headers and off road "X" pipe, a Patriot Extreme Dual Spring Kit, 7.450" Pushrods, a stock ported TB. And of course a full tune with EFI live.

As far as drivability and how the car acts now. It took some work to get the tune spot on. I will not be one of the guys who say you can just throw this cam in and have a mail order tune done. You will need some quality tuning to get the drivability spot on and good for daily driving. We spend about 9 hours total tuning which included his W.O.T. tune.

Next mod is a ported Fast 90/90 to see if we can make it to 450 NA Cam only.
Thanks for looking and give us a call if your interested in a cam package.

Thanks to our sister company J&J performance for the assist on the install and the use of the 248 DynoJet.

Graph is before and after number, SAE corrected, and smothing at 3.

Nice numbers! The LS6's always seem to make good #'s with minimal mods.

For sure. Better flow and more compression almost always makes for more power.

Yeah your right. Didn't even realize that until you brought it up.
I remember a few years back I wanted to know the spec's of the X3 because no one knew them, not that I know them I forget them. HAHA
Weird how that works.

1 7/8" Sorry I didn't add that in the post.
kinda goes to show that the 1 7/8" isn't overkill as some say.
