"Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh", Hey Kid, who the hell said anything about buying this cam? It was an interesting segment about an engine dyno, not even about the cam. And by the way, YO, stop capitalizing every word and using that stupid *** hip hop slang. This is LS1Tech not MTV.

the ZL1 and L88 motors flat out impress me whole heartedly...60's technology or not, for a stock production motor, that beats out the LS7 in terms of pure raw unadultered power.

Asmodeus, you are correct in your thinking. A standard 4/7 swap will not net 30hp in the real world. As pointed out, most gains are small, but rather repeatable. As stated this is not a viable option for your daddy's '71 Corvette- it's an all out race tactic.

By swapping the 4/7, there is no longer contention and each back is only sending one exhaust pulse at a given time.

Wow, I was expecting you to be around 12, MAYBE 13, quit being a tool and whoring someone elses thread. Oh, and before you start calling me an old fart, you have 5 years on me, and I bet I've forgotten more about these cars than you know. My Horn <-- toot, toot. That 60's tech, you know, pushrod V8's, well what do you think the LSX series motors are?

Would changing the #4 and #7 firing order work on the LS1 given the man problems people have had with the #7.

The LS1 ALREADY HAS the 4/7 and 2/3 firing order swap from the SBC.
LS1: 1-8-7-2-6-5-4-3
SBC: 1-8-4-3-6-5-7-2
