Lpe Gt-7
 
Anyone use this cam. Seems like it might be a sleeper kinda cam.

We have installed it a couple of times. If you like the LPE stuff, I like the GT2-3 better.

LS1GTA 09-16-2006 12:28 PM

Eh, the GT2-3 didn't move me in anyway. Is the GT7 comparable to Thunders Cheater cam?

GT11 looks promising

N4cer 09-16-2006 02:08 PM

That GT1-1 looks f'ing BEAUTIFUL!
229/242 duration @ .050 .631/.631
Only problem I see is that it's on a 114 LSA.

What kinda of power can one expect from the GT1-1 cam vs. something like thier GT2-3?

Also would the GT1-1 would also be a good blower cam?

Other than the GT1-1, I can't see that any of the cams are very big. I'm not sure on a blower cam. I know they usually have a wide LSA, but I don't know lift and duration for blower cams.

From all the talk on the truck page, the Gt2-3 cam is good because of the lower duration but big lift. that cam runs awsome in my truck with other bolt ons and tuning.

I did 368/360 with the GT2-3 in my GTO. Mods at that time were long tubes/cats into the stock cat back, CAI, pulley, thermostat, and tune. Should easily be more with the normal bolt ons and less drivetrain loss of an F-Body. Idles smoother than stock so you'll never even know its there :)

the lpe stuff is great for FI. the gt2-3 is a good cam to get now and then put the blower on later down the road. I would probably use the gt2-3 if you are going FI or look at EPP's blower cam that they have out. Usually higher lsa is easier to tune with a FI setup.

Michael02hawk 09-16-2006 05:29 PM

Good info, but - I want a cam with great NA power, but also be blower friendly. GT2-3 is good, but not enough for me NA.

Thats why I was asking about the GT1-1.

You call that big lift?

Bigger than the stock lift, and doesn't beat up the valvetrain either. It has its place in this world...

N4cer 09-16-2006 11:27 PM

OH yeah it has its place. But the guy said it has big lift. It doesn't.
