Default Lq9 what cam and valve springs

hey guys,

I have been scratching my head a little here. Lq9 iron block going into a car, Which cam can I use as a direct replacement for the stock Lq9 cam I dont want anything lumpy this is going to be turbo, highest rpm would prob be 6800 tops. using stock 6.0L heads for now. Can I just use a stock LS1 cam and upgrade springs? I need something emmisions friendly. thanks

Why go with an LQ9 for a turbo build? Get an LQ4 instead, dished pistons with the same 72cc #317 heads.

Check out FMS or Patrick G for cams, they'll set you up nice for your specific project.

I'll buy that LQ9 from you and set you up with an LQ4 if you're interested. I need a decent N/A DD motor.

Ok, good deal! Like I said, check out the sponosors for a custom cam for your exact mods
