What kind of experiences have you guys had with the B1? I heard its a great cam for stock heads. What kind of power does it make? I still have my stock manifolds right now, but I'm getting MAC's for tax returns. Its a 114lsa, I heard it hardly needs any tuning at all. What should I raise my rev limiter up to? I'm ordering a set of 918 springs and hardened pushrods too. Any other useful info is appreciated. thanks

 

Its a good Cam. Should be good for 365-375 with all of the bolt-ons/no cats. This cam has been around since the beginning it seems and people still use it. Fireball had great luck with it "cam only" in the early days.

 

I also have the B1 I love it.
LS1 edit FLP'S all bolt ons 380rwhp 368 tq sae corrected.

 

It's a great cam for the street I love mine not much tuning required I'm adding stage 2 heads from absolute speed as soon as they get here. Jay from absolute says this is one of his favorite cams with his stage 2 heads. <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

 

cool, sounds like I picked a winner <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> WHat kind of ET and MPH are you guys running with just bolt ons and the B1?

 

Excellent choice! My B1 made 391 RWHP and 371 RWTQ with stock heads through complete exhaust out to the rear of the car w/o CATs <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

 

I had one of the first B1 stock headed cars 2-3 years ago. (Fireball was the first). I absolutely loved the cam! It put out 375/365 without a LS6 intake or any tuning. It was very tame around town and pulled great to 6600. It still is one of the best street/strip cams available.

My B1/LS6 Stage 2 heads/LS6 intake are going in next week. I did a lot of research before picking this cam, I wanted excellent street driveability but yet feel a very slight lope, just to know its not stock anymore. I think I'll be happy as well <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

 

i love it too. stock heads and carsound cats and 4.10 gears...
375 before LS1edit tuning. almost 388 after LS1edit tuning. good luck and post your results if you dyno it. <img border="0" alt="[driving]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_driving3.gif" />

 

any 1/4 ET's and trap speeds? I'd like to get an estimate as to what kind of #'s I could put down.

Whatever happened to Brooke anyway? Seemed like he posted here (actually LS1.Com) all the time and just stopped a couple of years ago for no apparent reason.

There were a few other big time posters like that too. "Hacker Joe" comes to mind. Not a word from him in years.

Then we have Bode. I know he has a shop now, but still, not a word from him in a long while.

Anyway... Getting off the subject.

Ron,

Fireball (Brian), as far as I know, was the first one to use it with stock heads. I remember that there were alot of skeptics saying it wouldn't work well,etc. lol This was when everyone was fairly new to the LS1.

I had stock exhaust, stock cats, stock manifolds, stock heads, and made 340-350rwhp'ish with the B1. Definitly a good cam. Nobody knew the car wasn't stock, the lope was non-existant at 900rpms.
