H&C suggestion for Procharger C6 Looking to add a head & cam to my Procharger C6, can anyone recommend/suggest a blower cam profile & heads. Currently @ 560rwhp/501rwtq at 7PSI, I have the P1SC, ECS Alky kit, Kooks LT headers, Borla Stinger (Sport). What should I expect in terms of rear wheel gains by adding a H&C??
Any info is greatly appreciated!
Thanks.

I don't know much but you probably want a larger combustion chamber so you can run more boost (obviously) and I think a lot a people run ported lq9 heads with FI

With the P-1SC1 you are more than likely going to be maxing out the blower with adding heads and a camshaft to the LS2 engine. You may have to send it in and have it upgraded into a D-1SC, which runs $1,200.00.
You may also be looking into forging the bottom end of the engine, as you're going to be pushing the stock bottom end past what it can normally handle. I would suggest either just adding a blower friendly camshaft to your current combination, or pull the engine out and have it built with a forged bottom end. Bob

Thanks! This is the info I was looking for.

Thanks for the advice! Quick question for you, would I lose low-end TQ by swaping the P1 to the D1 unit at my present setup (w/o the H&C)?

Thanks Bob & Nine Ball!
The cam was suggested by a big tuner shop in Indiana and used on their C6 TT setups...geewiz, cam selection is a tough biz for us newbies.
Okay...other recommendations by tuners I've contaced:
232/236 114 LSA
232/234 115 LSA
224/228 114 LSA
Anyone care to comment?
Cheers,
Richard
