Re: The LS1 "Grand-Am Cup" camshaft > This is a MONSTER! There has got to be someone that has run this cam on a stock cubic inch motor. Someone please reply with some feed back hopefully dyno numbers and/or track times.

Re: The LS1 "Grand-Am Cup" camshaft > This is a MONSTER! We just pulled a car off the dyno with this cam. Its a race car, and Im not sure if he wants his numbers to be made public. Stout? To say the least! It was just a bolton package- CNC LS6 heads, and the 239/251 cam 
Give Lou at LG a call, and he may release them

Re: The LS1 "Grand-Am Cup" camshaft > This is a MONSTER! The car in question is a World Challenge race car. It was on it's
way back from the Sebring race, where he broke the diff on the standing
start. He showed up with the old ASA cam (525 lift), and had only
399rwhp . Needless to say, he left happy.
We used our own LS1 edit program. It idles at 1400, with no problem,
if it was for the street, we could have worked on the idle to get it
to about 1100.
The engine that we worked on, had 2 seasons of world challenge racing
on it already. The owner was on a budget, so we could only get
11.1 compression. The engine had to be built to the rules of that
class, and they require the GM c&c'd heads with NO modifications at all.
The TB also had to be stock, and it did not have an underdrive pulley.
The dyno runs were done on his 335/35x18 tires, and he had a cold
air intake that was just above the radiator, so until he hits some high
speed, it will suck some hot air off the radiator.
Having said that, the car did 450.7rwhp/ 402rwtq with peak power at 6700
We could have raised the hp and the rev limit if he had a bigger $$budget
but we put the cam in straight up at 106 intake center. We feel that to
be competitive, we will need to get in the 470+ rwhp range, and still stay
within the rules.
We are going to build a World Challenge C5 this summer, and we will
be building our own engine for it. The rules are very restrictive, and
they tear the engines apart if you are in the top 5, or if you get picked
out of a hat. They weigh the crank, rods and pistons, Check Port volume,
check Compression, valve size and bore and stroke.
Before the race, they pump and whistle the engine for Cu In and Comp
Ratio without taking the engine apart, then the tear down after the race.
It keeps everyone honest.

Actually, you gave me some good advice, on RPMs and stock bottom end, when I initially looked into this setup.
