Default cam only LS7 results

Hi Guys,

Here is our latest cam that we installed in a completely stock Z06. We have been busy lately and got behind a little but we had some cams that we developed that we were ready to try.

I suspect that we will hit over 600rwhp with only bolt ons soon without ever removing the heads. (Although we have a set of our heads on the way for later.)

If we stand still, we fall behind, so we had to not stand still.

Make no mistake, this is not the cam for your wife to go to the grocery store but you could get there pretty fast if you had to run out for milk.

My car has 6000 miles on the 08 Z06 with stock run flat tires.

Here are the results 581 rwhp 521 rwtq with the following data.

LG Pro Long Tube headers.

LG cam- G7-XX(double X cam) Specs not disclosed

High performance Valve springs,

Killer bee filter

Stock heads, never removed,

Stock intake manifold, never touched,

Stock Throttle body, never removed,

Stock Clutch, never removed.

Stock mufflers with "Remote Man Switch"

everything was in place as it runs on the street. We will be installing the following parts on the car soon but for now we have......

NO ported TB,
NO ported manifold,
NO light clutch,
NO EWP,
NO aftermarket Mufflers



PS, any of you local guys that want to stop by for a ride, feel free.






Louis

Im working on 600 rwhp cam only. Itll happen here in the next few days. I have a 500 rwhp cam only LS3, and we are working on some more power, yet more drivable 500 rwhp LS3 stuff as well. Ill have some killer results to post up here in the next few days

The LS3 stuff came alive recently, 350 rwtq@ 2500, 400 rwtq@ 3500, and 470 peak tq, 500 rwhp

Nice to see a cam only LS7 making the #'s they should. Once you finally hit 600 rwhp maybe finish up some of your headers for us F-body's
