on my 2002 ls1 camaro im looking to change up my cam the car made good power im just not happy with the track results its an auto car with 373 gear and a 4000 stall converter full boltons 234/238 598/602 lift cam making 430rwhp i figured the car would trap better than 115.5mph?

For me it was the Lg motorsports g5x3 when i had a ls1 in my car. I made great power,pulled hard and sounded tough. I do think today there may be better cams out with the new lobs that are on the market. I would get with Pat g to get something for your needs.

I agree - contact PatrickG, and/or start thinking about some heads.

i would say the cam i have now is close to the g5x3 its a ttp v3 cam

yea i wanted to keep it cam only i thought with the power it was making 430rwhp/408rwtq it would have had more only been to the track once and the tranny blew i got that squared away and since then raised the rpms 150 added a new tb and chrs1313 ram air so it might run alittle better it just the mph didnt seem right for the hp

what was the 1/4 time? what was your 60 ft? dyno graphs?

That MPH seems low... with my crappy 3500 converter and stock rear and lousy 98 heads, I trapped 117 in a 3700lb car.

I would look at the tune first, and check the converter...

i gotta find out how to post the graph being a pain heres quarter times on the left side

converters a 4000 vigilante i no i can leave harder probably get a low to mid 1.5 60' out of it ...i would figure the car would have had 118 mph in it or better

The most proven off the shelf cam for these motors (346) is hands down the 224/224.

I used to run a g5x3 on 114 lsa and i loved it, that was in a previous ls1 fbody i owned, I am looking around now and it doesn't seem to many people are running it. What is a comparable cam to it? i used to daily drive it fine so i am wondering if there are any new cams comparable to it

I would imagine the most proven cam would be the TREX cam.

The most proven cam will vary from setup to setup and goals to goals.

It all depends on what you want/budget that will allow XXXX to prove itself/etc etc...

I would guess the MPH and the efficiency (or lack of) with the VIG play a roll.
We need ALL the variables to even guess what the problem is however. Not just bits and pieces.

Changing cams likely wont net you much IMO.

what size injectors are you using?how many miles on the motor?maybe do a compression check.

30lb injectors motor has 44,000 miles was just on the dyno 2 months ago for a retune

I will bet money its not the fake fault.. I would look elsewhere.

are you on stock heads? i highly doubt your cam only car made 430whp through a 4k vig stall.

i'd guess you were on a generous dyno. at that mph you're prob closer to 400whp, which would be more realistic of a stalled auto. a bad converter will dyno lower, as well.

a big cam is a big cam. what makes the difference at the track is setup and da.

What's your raceweight? 60ft?

Theres alot of cams that have proven itself. Its just all in your combo.
