You'll be happy with the results. I had that cam with LT's and stock heads. It made 410, but the mid range pull felt great!!

Something roughly around 420. It seems like that's what other people are around with a pretty similar setup so we'll see

Sounds great! I'm really considering this cam, was looking at the v2 as well but really leaning towards this one.

Congrats Tyler! Car sounds and runs great. It is a fast daily driver with great street manners. The car tuned up very easy and should put down good ET's at the Midnight Mayhem.

Finally had time to have the car taken to the dyno and see what she's putting down after the install. Uncorrected was 407 and after some tuning she put down 445 whp and 433 tq. I only thought I would get around 420 with this setup but after putting down 445 i'm amazed. What do you guys think?


I have to give a huge shoutout to 76TALS1! He's a great engine builder for sure and really knows what he's doing..couldn't be more happy with the setup.

Nice build. Maybe I missed it, but what Intake are you running? 450 seems very generous (unless I'm missing something), but like everyone will point out, dyno's are merely tuning tools. The track will tell the true story.

Should take her to the track and report back as to how she runs!

Out of curiosity, did you have the heads flowed after the port work?

Nice numbers, planning on taking it to drag race anytime soon. I'd be interested in your trap speeds.

I don't know if I missed it but who ported your heads?

Here's the dyno sheet..dyno vid to follow tomorrow. I still need to get the TB ported and we'll see what happens at the track. The track here is at 2100ft I have really bad tires on it..Continental DWs lol

I would have never guessed! We'll see what the track has to say about that though.

Here's the dyno vid!
