Just remember this was was specifically designed and dyno tested for the CNC ls6 heads. On those heads in a 346 you should be as high or higher than any of the other H/C packages out there. Rumor has it that this cam in cup cars is making 460RWHP or greater.

This cam would most likely be a bad choice for most ported heads. The reason I say this is that the ls6 cnc heads are designed with a much more restrictive exhaust port than the usual ported ls1/ls6 head being provided by vendors.

We confirmed this when the cnc heads were flowed at MTI recently. The exhaust on the MTI heads was much better than the CNC head, so in this case this cam would be too big on the exhaust side for a set of MTI heads.

It might be worth trying. But, your heads need to be about a 70% intake to exhaust percentage. Just remember GM spent ALOT of dyno time getting a cam to work with the CNC heads.

Well, looks like Ill have the answer first. CNC LS6 heads have been ordered along with the cam. I should have it in before the new year. Lets see what this setup will do. I wonder since Im using all GM parts now would I have a warranty <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Yes they are making 460+, but its not your average LS6. FAST/holly/Motec engine management systems, High compression, lightweight forged internal engine parts, LG/LG style Longtubes, SMALL 5" clutch that tips the scales @ ~8# with the flywheel, and lots of R&D!
