MTI healthy S1 cam with specs of 244/244, .612 lift on a 112 lsa through my A4 tranny! With the extra cubes its more tame on the street then one might imagine as those extra 81 cubes really help out as well as the 4000 stall converter. Haven't stalled out on the street yet and that makes it 100% streetable to me despite alot of shaking, vibrating, etc.

yea i can see how all those cubes help out. i was thinking of this cam on a 380 or so cubed motor. i think it would do awsome. also should work ok with a 300 shot. problem is that i can afford heads, so i am doing my own porting. i figure that the heads should be close to stage 1 heads from other companys.

I think that cam would be bad *** with 380 cubes, etc. Maybe you can save a little and get the patriot heads (LS6) style stage III to compliment your set up in the future and that would really rock.

Man, looks like we have the big block 69 camaro in common. AWESOME f-bodys no DOUBT!! Your 10 flat time at 135 is quite impressive and i would imagine alittle bit of the laughing gas is involved there!

I have a 236/240 XER in a 383 Stroker with Stage 2 heads. It is fine on the street. I am getting it dyno tuned next weekend. It stalls on occassion but it is from the 30# injectors making it run extremely rich and is fouling out the plugs. Tuning should take care of that.

MTI427, your right about the laughing gas. it put down 700rwhp with a 200 shot and 534 NA. 69s are the best f-bodys ever made. right now it is sitting in a garage far, far away waiting for its restoration. i am waiting for my sons to get older so it can be a family project.


2001, keep us posted. i am very intereasted. what combo did you use to run a 10.98?
