as for the zo6 cam http://forums.corvetteforum.com/show...post&t=1567896

the pushrod requirement is enough to say no for just a small cam like that.

im just saying i have nothing against you, are entitled to your opion too, im just saying i think if he doesnt have to pay for anything its worth it no matter if it just gives you something to do for the day. but i wont write anything else because we took four pages of just me and you fighting, but hey you are still cool in my book cause even if your motor is in the garage still pretty impressive numbers. peace

LOL, Its just for the minimal gain you risk a bit like nicking a bearing or some **** like that. Like i said the offer is up I will pay for post dyno, car owner pays for pre dyno. It would be cool to see the results. Im all about going faster, i just dont think its gonna work out that way in this situation.

So if you do a swap like this is the car considered to be in the "cammed" category?

Tell those guys they need to build an ls powered car to showcase for Carter or something.



And come on guys...What about power gains with a Z06 cam, it is definitely a larger cam.

Yeah, Seans car is taking us some time to complete...Everytime we fix something, another thing goes crazy! It has been a long hard road, but we have learnt alot about ourselves and the car in the process....We can't wait to see it out on the road...should be awesome.


We are building a couple pretty cool LS1 cars, feel free to stop by the shop anytime and check them out. A rear mount big turbo Z06, Couple of big (300ish) shot nitrous cars...etc...
