Default The EPP Forced Inductions Cam

This question is more pointed at Exotic Performance Plus, but does anyone have any idea how much h/p the EPP forced inductions cam produced on a supercharged or turboed setup on an LS-1, or an LS-2 motor, with stock internals?

The cam is only one small aspect of an engine setup. Cams themselves do not produce power, so the question is more than a little vague.

I think he means just swapping the cam and everything else stock. How much can he gain? But maybe I am wrong.

The reason I went with the cam I have now (speed inc SC2) was because of a local guy putting it in his stock LS1 boosted engine gained almost 80rwhp over his stock cam.

Why not call EPP and find out straight from the horse's mouth?

While I think that this cam works well in a matched setup, ANY car will have good gains with an aftermarket cam and springs and a centrifugal blower... The stock setup doesn't allow you to spin it past 6200; just adding room up top to turn the engine raises peak HP significantly.

Already done!!! Spoke with Bob and he was very helpful. They advised that cam supported 1000 rwhp. So, the sky's the limit.

Check out the above Corvette C6, which has heads and exhaust, ProCharger at 8 psi and our blower camshaft. Stock bottom end and it is making 671 rwhp with timing pulled out of it to try to keep it alive. Bob
