Re: ls1 hot cam hotcam and truck heads (should prolly mill.015) and a little n20 would be a killer street setup, the hotcam loves the bottle....the cam wont up you comprestion but might fill the cylnders a little better or worse(cam remember for the hotcam). i would recomend,
milled.015 truck heads
hotcam,n20 and tuning....

Re: ls1 hot cam When comparing numbers between cams, always keep in mind that some cars can dyno better than 370 RWHP with the stock cam and stock heads. My '02 dynoed 359, for example, and it's an A4.

Re: ls1 hot cam Well, I got my results and I am pleased. Too bad its so damn hot today! 83 Degrees while the test was done.
RWHP-365
RWTQ-372
I'm happy because I gained a lot of area under the curve which is more important than peak hp for me. (This is my daily driver) Here is a link to the dyno graph:

I have my old run before the cam and intake also on there for comparison.

Re: ls1 hot cam Yeah, keep in mind I put down only 325rwhp before the cam and intake with much cooler weather. Had I dynoed now with those same conditions I probably would have picked up over 45rwhp with those two mods.
So the comparison is not perfect.
Good luck!
