Big enough for you...

LS1 Grand-Am Cup, 239/251 Duration @ 0.050, Racing Camshaft
Price: $439.95
Part # 88958606


Advertised Duration Int.: 294
Advertised Duration Exh.: 306
Duration @ 0.050" (I/E): 239 / 251
Lift (I/E): 0.570 / 0.570
Lobe Separation: 106
RPM Range: 4000-7000
Cam Type: Hydraulic Roller

This hydraulic roller camshaft is designed by the GM Racing Division for road racing applications in the Grand-Am series. Serious duration and lift will require that the piston to valve clearance be checked as well as major PCM modifications. For best torque, install the intake centerline 105 for best power install at 107. GM recommends lightweight valves and valve springs from the 2002-03 LS6 engine for use with this camshaft.

Note: When installing this camshaft, it is critical that you use the point of maximum lift on the intake lobe. This is not a symmetrical lobe design!
