I just bought an LS1 GTO and was wondering if we could utilize the cam phaser used for the VVT in the 6.2L in the new Escalade??
The block is 4.060"....0.060 larger than an LS2, and listed for $1300ish a GMPP
Can you just upgrade the O.S. using HPTuners or it doesnt work that way?
I really appreciate any help...I am seriously thinking about taking this extra LS1 I have apart and use the insides to build an L92 and see what kind of numbers it could put down.
Also, does anyone know how this VVT works? does it advance the cam at lower rpms then retard as rpms climb? or does it constantly change depending less on RPM and more on engine load or throttle position, etc?
There is still only one cam lobe for each valve so I know it doesnt work like VTEC, changing lobes after a specific RPM...
