Just to prove my point. We took 98 241 heads and installed a 2.1 intake valve and only ported them to a peak of ONLY 306.8 cfm's By going to a larger intake valve we were able to get more cfm's without changing the cc of the intake runner. This keeps the VELOCITY of the runners better. Then we setup a cam to build lots of cylinder pressure. With JUNK 98 241 heads we did 647 hp and 607 tq. with pump gas on the engine dyno. On the chassis dyno we made 538rwhp. and 507rwtq. through a 12 bolt and a single exhaust. Common sense more cylinder pressure = more horsepower. My VE's were 105-106% on the engine dyno...

Need I remind you I had to have it shipped to Hawaii? ![EEK !!](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_eek2.gif)
Interesting discussion on how LSA effects cilynder pressure. I'll run the Comp Cams custom grind 236/248 .580/.599 ground on a 113 LSA until we see more R & D on the L92 416 setup. My engine will be installed & tuned next week. So, since I haven't even started the engine yet, it's a little soon to be talking about changing the cam already. But, I'll take the info as food for thought. Thanks guys.

who did you buy it from and what parts did they use? I am looking for that setup but was going to use all my LS1(6) parts but this maybe a better deal.
thanks

Brian Gruben from Scoggin Dickey was the one who sold me the engine. His phone number is: 806-798-4000 ext 354
His e-mail address is: Brian Gruben (bgruben@sdpc2000.com)
Valve covers & harmonic ballancer are the only parts I'm using off my GTO.

All I was trying to tell you guys by just putting the biggest cam, best flowing heads, does not equal MORE power. Have fun wasting time and money figuring this out. I have learned my lesson......

Thanks - I was hoping you would say it was Brian from Scoggin Dickey. I have watching all the sponsors; they appear to be honest and very up front about everything. I am not stating the other sponsors are not honest or up front, it is just I feel very comfortable with what I have seen from SDPC and would want to do business with them.
Thanks
Bill

If you can wait 2-3 weeks.... I am sure Koenig will have some good advice on a cam. He is working up specs right now for me. It will be a NA cam that is good for weekend 200 shot nitrous passes, Patriot springs, ported heads, and a 408 cubes. Should be bigger or smaller than some of the current cams out. Basically he will size it to what I need. I want it nasty in sound and a beast in power. With enough driveabity to go from stop light to stop light for cruising.
Sound like what you are looking for?

There has been a some talk about the L92 liking camshafts to have a wider LSA. I was a little concerned because the Comp Cams rep recommended a 115 LSA and I insisted that the custom cam, they were making for me, have a 113 LSA. My 416 L92/L76 is going in this week so I can't say how it runs yet.

for that price i might have to get back in the game with a big cube setup. so that is with all brand new parts correct? absolutly awesome.

I dropped a valve and ruined my LS2. Having to replace the whole long block, I figured 416 cubic inches was a real option. I'm an old school Pontiac 455 fan and just love torque. I looked at the L92 heads & L76 intake as a very cheap route to take. I paid $7874.00 for the whole longblock complete from intake to oil pan, 40 LB injectors, ported oil pump and custom cam included. I really didn't look at this as wasting money, but more of a good selection for a replacement engine for the cost. My goal wasn't to get the highest flowing heads & biggest cam to make the highest HP. My goal is to have a daily driver that can beat most other NA engine cars without spending too much money. That sure rules out the LS7 as a replacement engine, doesn't it? Hey, thanks for your input and have fun driving!
