Lt1 276hr-14
Lt1 276hr-14 this is the cam i was told by the guys at com cams to get for the my car. with cam i will not need a stall or gears. i plane on getting heads sometime (not soon) what do you guys think?? they said i could look at getting 20rwhp from it on a STOCK motor........ any input?????
I would replace the lifters, but not Comp R's, just do some sort of stock replacement, i also did lifter retainers as well for future ease of cam installs, just have to rotate it twice and then pull it straight, dont have to take the intake off or not, now whether i actually feel safe enough to do that idk yet, haha. Check your cam bearings as well when you do it.
They dont list the specs of it online, do you know them?

This is the order in which you need to do your mods, seriously!
Stall
Gears (3.42 might be decent on A4)
1.6 RR/valve springs
cam swap
You can do the last two at the same time, but you really should get all the supporting mods before you do a cam swap. Your lifters should be fine, but swapping them out will only leave you with one less thing to worry about. There are also a lot of other upgrades you should do with your cam swap such as new pushrods. Then you can get the heads you want and you'll get a lot more out of your cam swap.

As far as the stall, this cam will raise your operating rpm and your car will perform poorly with a stock stall. You might get a 20hp increase from just throwing this cam in, but your car will run like crap if you don't have supporting mods. I can guarantee that 100%.
