Default le3 h/c package

is anyone running the LE3 package? I have a 95 z28 i im thinking about getting the LE3 for my car and was wondering what kind of street manners it has. I only drive it on the weekends or at the track. What do yall think?

Not very good street manners for the LE3 cam. Javier over on CamaroZ28.com has the cam with his LE2 heads. Might want to ask him about it, I wouldn't recomend it because it's a little big for a street cam.

Well, the cam bret ground me back in march for my LE TFS heads on a 383 i guess was probably pretty close to the LE3 cam (maybe you can chime in bret, Nathan Watson) and while it doesn't have the BEST road manners, it is manageable. Been working the tune locally and have been able to get rid of most of the surge down low. to me it is quite acceptable. Even with my street twin.

It sounds like his is going on a stock cubed motor. So if that cam is pretty radical in your 383 on the street, it would be to much for a 350. You have the extra cubes there and it helps out with the larger cams as far as being streetable.

I realize this, but bret adjusts the cam for the difference in cubes "ala" LE3 cam for a 383, so i think the manners are supposed to be very similar

Yeah before we had some more steps in there. But to simplify for Lloyd and I we made the cams have a set name and that allows us to mix and match them. I doubt a 355 will get a LE4 cam but it's basically the LE3 cam for a 383. The LE3 cam for a 355 will probably drive similar or a little worse than a 383 with the LE4.
