So I have an LQ9 and looking for opinions on a cam kit, Its a weekly driver. I guess Im just looking for more horse.im sure somebody else has had this same quest but I couldn't find a thread on it

 

What kind of vehicle, trans, gears and mods?

 

yeah sorry. I have a Silverado ss lowered trany 4L85-E 4 speed. 14.0:1 gear ratio, minor mods K&N cold air strated lol

 

And its just rear wheel drive unlike most ss

 

What's the plans for the truck and what's the budget

 

Keepin the trany stock, would like to keep it below 850 and want to put different lifters and springs in also another word a cam kit

 

Assuming you're still running cast iron exhaust manifolds, I'd run the Lingenfelter GT 2-3 cam. Call them and they can get you the entire set up.
Cam/pushrods/springs/LS2 timing chain/oil pump/and gaskets
This should fall into your budget perfectly and the best part is this cam works with GM blue/yellow springs and you can run your factory tune without any issues until you can afford a dyno. With headers and retune, your mileage should increase as well.
IIRC the specs are 207/220 118 LS and .573"/.580" lift
Too bad your SS isn't AWD......I put a .062" jet dry shot in the air box of my 03 Silv SS and the 1.76 sixty foot made me some money street racing....
