A BS stealth cam for a LT1 that makes sick power? I dunno. I'd have to see all the mods. My car doesnt sound cammed when i raise the idle.

Not necessarily. You can get some good custom grinds out there... Stock heads? What kind of "big power" are you talking?

well...................

the kicker is 400 hp (assuming he means real wheel)
Good power can be made and still sound stock. Keep the cats, a muffler, and a tight LSA (tight, correct? numerically higher) plus add all the bolt ons that don't change the sound of the idle, you can make big power.

There's a cam called the "cadillac" cam and has a near stock idle...Makes ~360 to the wheels cam only...Very street friendly and very little cam surge and, of course, stock sound for the unsuspecting.

it would make a little more torque, but not worth the 2k
