Mid 13s cam swapped 5.3
I had the 220/224 low lift cam stock gears and trans and ran 13.6s all day.
So what ever happened to the cam shootout......I have been patiently waiting for the results for 2 years now :)
Turbos took over.
I know right...WTF lol he should turbo that truck and post the dyno numbers....then we would be talking
I noticed no one responded with anything anbout thet LQ4 or 6.0 questions. I too would like to know how this setup (or similar setup) would affect a 6.0? Someone please elaborate please.
I think that we are going to be fighting a losing battle here :/Quote:

The cam alone made 442hp, were those LQ9's 345hp or something like that? if i'm wrong, i'll look up the info, but it was a good gain for just a cam.
there are better cams now, but that 220 and 224 have been making power for a long time.
Yes Allen you are correct with those numbers for a bone stock LQ9: 345hp/380ft.lbs tq.... and that is a great gain, hence the reason companies now state a SOLID 40-50 RWHP with just a simple cam swap, It seems that cams of that nature were almost to good to be true 10 years ago or labeled to old BBC. But not anymore :) Thanks for the input
How would this cam work in my 5.3 s10? im limited to shorties cause im not spending what they want for LT's,and who to i purchase cam from?
I got around 100 rwhp with cai, underdrive pulley, shortys, exhaust, msd wires, cam .607/.614 219/227 112 LSA and prc dual springs and blackbear tune.
