asa cam help please give me some insight. im looking at the gm asa cam mostly for valvespring life. wondering how much of a difference it would be from the hot cam. i will be getting the cam and springs installed by a proffesional and they said they would tune it with ls1 edit. HOW WILL THIS CAM BEHAVE AFTER LS1 EDIT TUNING? i know it will have a lopey idle but i like that. i drive the car about 10k miles a year its not a daily driver. will it through a ses light after tuning? basically how streetable is this cam. thanks!!!

After tuning no SES light :-) With your M6 I would reccomend at LEAST 3.73 or better 4.10's gears and you will be fine. Oh and a clutch is necessary too. SLP headers work beautifully with that cam.

Clutch? Na, he's got an '02. Comes with Z06 clutch and upgraded hydraulics already, as did yours. I agree with ya Sununix about the gears though.
Ls1Edit tuning has come a long way. The ASA used to be regarded as undaily driveable, but now, it should be fine with a tune. I've always liked the ASA cam, and it should make decent power over the regular GM hotcam. It also has the maddest, most wicked lope I've ever heard.
Please let us know how things go and post your dyno or track numbers.
Good luck!

i ran an 8.67 with this cam... best i ran STOCK was an 8.6 ..... lol.... somthing not quite right. but it was due to my clutch, tune, and tires, but the car picked up 5 mph in the 1/8 so that will tell you that you have picked up good power. the car is a damn TORQUE monster. i live in a semi small town and there is no one around here that is going to touch that car. it pulls DAMN strong for a cam/headered car.

This should link up to a dyno on a ASA-prepped LS1.

I doubt a 427, but it says 5.7LS1 V8... I think some awesome heads and some mild motor work and maybe spray? Otherwise ASA cam will not make those #'s. Can ralt12 post the specs on the car please?

So what I am gathering is its a ASA cam with the 853 casting heads made that power on a stock motor with upgraded rod bolts?
WOW! :-) I would love to see if they can do thatf or me. Know how much?
