L92 Cam Guestimates & Opinions
#83
Love to share-but it is a shop specific (not a sponsor on the board) designed by a well known person that was banned from this board.
PM me and I will tell you about it.
What I will tell you is on stock bottom end GTO's the cam makes 450rwhp through a stalled auto and 485 through an M6 (assuming the "normal" supporting mods).
Furthermore buying fully ported L92 heads is overkill and does more harm than good on a stock LS2.

Thats very true. ANY intake porting will more than likely hurt a smaller (6.0) motor.

****... aint that the truth.... my heads are waaay overkill for my 408.... damn 244/248 cam is as quiet as my 226/226 was in my stock motor and the car simply feels like it wants more cam! Atleast I know it dont make a lick of difference on the jug. I am sure with the right cam it will make a bit more power.

Right, but a ProStock motor is turning a much higher RPM and with a much different intake manifold so its breathing requirements can't even be compared. On a street LS2 we are talking a totally different animal, and the powerband would be tuned differently with duration and overlap for a street car with a plastic intake manifold. I'm pretty sure I don't need to tell you this though.

I realize this is an old post but I will add one point here..... I recommended a cam with 0 deg overlap for this combination and some people took issue with that.... that's OK.... I'm just offering an opinion.... but take note..... an LS7 makes quite a bit of power with a similar head and intake system and has a cam with -20 deg overlap @ .050" cam lift. My recommendation is for 20 deg MORE.... so I don't think that I am necessarily being overconservative.

If you're asking me - Richard at WCCH and I agreed on a cam that we thought would work well with his Stage 2 L92 heads. Look like we did pretty well. 510-470 and drives like stock. Definitely not a max build. Last week I changed from a fairly small filtered Breathless Performance Vortex air intake to a huge filtered Haltech Venom AAIS. I had to add 5lbs of fuel pressure to richen the car up temporarily until Ed can retune it. It was running SUPER lean after the swap. The BP unit may have have been holding it bad some. Can't wait to get it retuned and dyno'd.

I just put together a 416 L92 with ported L92 heads and 11:1 CR. After much research, I went with a 228/232 114+4 on Comp XE lobes. This cam is way more aggressive than my TR224 was in the 346 LS6 I had been running. It doesn't strighten out and run smooth until at least 2000 RPM, though I still have some VE tuning to do.
