i didnt know where to post a cam question so yeah.i just wanted some help on desiding what type of cam i should get cause im confused there is so many different kinds. i have a 98 stock non ws6 t/a just CAI and exhaust thats it. please help. thanks.

 

Cam choices aren't always easy, too many veriables to think about. The first step would be getting educated on cam specs, then start thinking about what you want to get out of it. Are you doing anything else along with it??

 

Tr 224/224-112 is always a good choice. or the LG G5x3-114 .

 

i went with a 224/227 114 and i got 388RWHP cma only

 

yeah after the cam ill be getting headers because i have emission coming in march and im deleting the cats so i dont want any problems with the dmv, and later im thinking of lsx manifold, and that be good for a while.

 

what does the price run around for a cam install at a shop. kinda want to do it my self cause i want to learn but i dont want to messup anything.

 

$750-labor- for cam,pushrods,valve springs,headers,cats,xpipe,instulationcharges,by a Gmtrained person on a '02 corvette

 

~350 i think for a cam swap ... do it yourself tho. Not only will it feel good when the car is back up and running again knowing you did it all yourself. but also, if anything goes wrong down the road, you'll know exactly what it is and how to replace/adjust/fix it. just follow the guide on ls1howto.com and you'll be set.

 

yeah i think ill do it my self, wow i didnt know bout that site, thanks guys you really helped.

 

no problem. and if you run into any snags during the install just post up and we can help ya out. everybody's got a first time for everything, and w/ the knowledge available here it makes it alot easier.

 

another quiestion? do i HAVE TO buy the complete kit valve,retainers,locks when i get the cam. and what would happen if i got a higher lift cam, like a 232 or something like that
