But you know we'll be out there as the Chuckster and me and everyone else there love to race. that's what it's all about isn't it!

Right on the money. That was the cam we were trying to put in my car but yall found out it wouldnt work with my heads.

With a 115 LSA, you think this cam would be cool with say a STS Turbo ?

Congs guys, you have found a cam that will be much more streetable, be easier to tune, be better for A4 guys and still make damn good power.
I am guessing this is probally a 115+4 and that will make the tuners very happy.

Thumbs up

Yes it would work pretty well with any power adder since the overlap is at a minumum and the exhaust opens pretty early for NOS. This makes the cam more idiot proof and reduces the exhaust systems importance a little. With reliefs we could narrow up things a little more and probably pick up some mid range but without them it doesn't matter because you can't don't want valves hitting on stock stuff! This cam was designed to run in an unmodified LS1 longblock and still have decent manners and power. The guy that owns that car we put the first one in goes on a 400 mile round trip to Dallas every other weekend and he is still getting around 26 mpg even though he picked up more than 100 more RWHP even without the cutout and 110 with.

We do and will also have some more NOS specific stuff to go out and play with here in Houston as well and we'll report on that and what we run at the track too.
