Question ok so I would like some opinions.

im running a 383 ls1 ms4 currently with 853 heads. prc. 675 springs. anyways I have 4.10 gears in my 10 bolt and stalk stall. This cam is killing my times I feel. I have it nitrous ready but have not shot it yet. I would like an opinion on what cam I should swap in for my ms4. I ran a 14.6 at 100mph. I would like to try to see some quicker times

Here ya go!: https://ls1tech.com/forums/gears-axl...ere-first.html

I'm still learning about how finding the right gear setup can totally change how your car drives depending on what kind of camshaft you have, and this link should hopefully help you out.

Start here. You need to get a stall

Also if your in utah I'm guessing the DA is very high and you won't see the kind of times someone at sea level will. But you NEED a stall.

Agreed!! Probably look at a good 3600 stall if you're planning to spray it.

The stall is a huge part of your problem. You have a completely mismatched combo.

Not sure what kind of DA you ran in, but that could be another large chunk. My car loses .3-.4 and 3-4mph from 1800DA to 3200 DA
