Default will this make 400rwhp?
04 LS1 out of a gto, with stock 243 heads, and a mti r1 cam (232/236, 575/578, 112 lsa). This would be with a truck intake, LT headers, 80mm TB, 25% UD pulley, and a couple other dumb bolt ons through a t56. Just trying to figure out how how to go with the motor I got. Only thing I will not have is the heads. Should i go with a new cam on this motor or stick with it since i already have it?

Thanks
Jon

With a good tune I think it should borderline close to 400.

It should. Make sure the tuner is happy that day.

Definately has the opportunity to do it. I had that camshaft in a old stroker a long time ago, & it did just good for me. Besides if she doesn't make 400 just throw some PRC Stage 2.5 heads on that thing & bump the hp up 40-45rwhp....
