Anyone try a b1 with turbo?
Anyone try a b1 with turbo? Looking to go fi and ive been doing some homework on cams. I got a really good deal on a lunati b1 cam. Its old school but seems it maybe a good turbo cam. plans are a ptk1000 boosting a 5.3. Let me know what u guys think.
Then why did the designer of the B1's spec me one on a 113?
OP- I think the cam in you sig would work well unless you want more RPM.
I was originally going to use the cam in my sig but it sold i need to update it. I read so much about the possibility of back pressure and things like that so leaned toward a single pattern grind. The b1 actually runs dam strong motor for what it is. I wonder if custom would yield better results or retarding the cam 2-4 degrees help as well.
yea thats the one. lol i looked at some of speed inc grinds and the 221 duration seems like it would do good in the 5.3 although it is advanced 4* not common on turbo cams.

In a lack of sleep fog, I was thinking of a different cam.
I thought you bought a 224/228???? That I wanted and had to go buy new for $150 more!
If it's like a GTK w/68mm and you run plenty of down pipe and muffler.
A small conventional split might work. The 302 guys run conv split w/o issue on 65mm.
How about a 219/219 113 .600"/.585" custom voodoo? It's what I got spec'd till I went bigger turbo and didn't order it.
Yea I got a 224/228 but more for the all motor type set up. The ptk is a 76mm with a .96 ar... I haven't got the full specs on the 224/228 I need the icl from comp and haven't got back to me yet.

Verdad Gallardo I see a few people run the 215/215 114lsa cam. There are a few turbo buicks that have run it before the ls times. Stock4.8 and a few guys run it with good results. A custom grind could be in the cards
What is the 224/228 going in on ur build?

Unreal. For everyone who hopped on this site in recent years Brooke was/is a legend in this community. Back when MTI was around him and Tony were some of the first with cams in their cars...back with Mac mid-lengths and hypertech programmers. He had a hidden dry kit that EVERYONE copied (including me -- Brooke I bought your MTI lid like 9 years ago...haha)
