Ls3 cam

So when i buy an ss or z28 camaro i want to do an Ls3 swap and i was wondering what the best cam would be for the best gains. If your gonna do something might as well do it right and not leave it stock!

There are many more but it's going to depend on what your goals are.

Well I want about 550 hp and 500 ft lbs of tq should be pretty achievable. Also want it sorta streetable. Want it to be a street beast and also take it to the track when I can

Your gonna need more cubes for 550 that's for sure. With my mods in sig and tuning at Straightline's mustang dyno on a 100*+ day I made 520/500 SD tuned with a 9" spooled and 4.11 gears. Are you auto or m6?

To get 500 at the wheels can be done but you are going to need a healthy cam. Geoff@EPS has a grind that is proven in 2010 camaros to make 500 at the wheel. Give him a call and he can get you set up.
