futral cams?

what kind of numbers does this cam put out, and what are the must parts that have to go on with it.

If you're getting a Futral cam, get the F11 or F13. I know you may think it will be too much, but listen to one idle first. It idles great and drives like stock, theres no reason to go any smaller (unless you have an emissions test).

i have an f13 and am very happy with it. i drives great. get it on a 114, it will idle better in an a4. mine is on a 112 and it gets a rough with the a/c on. and definitely get at least a 3500 stall. you might also want to look at getting a ported throttle body and a pulley to go with that. and if you havent seen it already, www.ls1howto.com is where you need to go if you plan to do it yourself, (which i highly recommend) good luck

I see you live in Houston, pass by MTI and talk to Jason or David: worried about emissions, they have a couple of kick *** Stealth cams, ( I have Stealth II, 224/220, .581/.581 116lsa, idles like stock, and kicks butt till 6600. 404rwhp/383rwtq, cam only with FULL bolt ons (minus EWP))

No, New Orleans has no emissions testing. You just drive up and they look at your car and give you a sticker, basically looking to see if you have insurance.

I think a Hotcam can pass emissions .. It says it is 49state legal .. and TX is not the one state ..

PM me if you need an inspection sticker and maybe I can direct your where to go WS62001ta

Where I live we haven't had inspection on cars since the 70s......emissions are only in 4 county in the whole state.Now needless to say without the inspection there is some real junk on the road.......if its got plate,insurence and all the lights work you can drive pretty much anything you want mod wise.
