Guess the numbers

Lets play a game. I am going to have my LSX s 10 tuned this coming Thursday and I have no idea what it will make. Lets guess and see how much it will put down and see who gets closest.

It is an 01 LS1 from an SS with its stock 853 heads with mild porting in the intake and exhaust ports. I have a GM ASA cam in it that I believe is 525 lift and 228/232 duration on a 110 lobe sep. It has the larger plastic truck MAF with an LS6 intake, Sanderson shorty headers, dual 2 1/4 into 3" single Magnaflow muffler over the axle and out the back. All this runs on 36lb flex fuel injectors and 87 octane. The final touch that may sway the outcome is that it has truck coil packs on it instead of the F body ones.

I am running a 4L60 with a Yank 3600 stall and 3.42 rear gears.

Let the fun begin.

Well my 4.8 with that cam made 317whp with a nitrous tune. About 330whp na tune. So Ima say about 350whp-375whp depending on tune and exhaust. What is your rev limiter set at? Cause you wont see peek until about 6krpms. Also the more open the exhaust the better with this cam. like, get rid of the mufflers and youll make a lot more power. with a good tune of corse
EDIT: the correct cam specs are 226/236 .525/.525 110lsa

Low 300's.

The short headers, cam, lots of stall with high gears, and 87 tune will hold it back.

You need some long headers, a 93 tune, a cam with less duration, more lift, and wider LSA, and some 4.10's.

Well........It didn't disappoint at 345 through an unlocked converter and 87 octane. Peak hp was at 6100 and the torque was around 328 at 4800.

not too bad, get a good set of 243 heads and you will gain another 20hp. I hate that are headers are such a pain:rant:

I was close in my estimate because I know this cam. Do you have a picture of the dyno sheet? That way I can see your power curve, and a/f ratio.
Your motor has a lot left to gain with this cam/head combo. I would say with LT's ORY and 3'' open exhaust with a good live 93 tune you will see 365whp 345wtq. Like I said before this cam is all about the exhaust. Also make your shift points at about 6500rpms. It will be much happier there.

look for low 13's to mid 12's on th track.

The cam is why the TQ is a little low but it made a little more HP than I thought.

i think its not to bad for running 87 octane...but why on earth not run a better gas in it...you can get a lot more timing and power with 93 and prob get the 370's easy

The original intention of this truck was to be a driver. I have had street driven monsters in the past and this one is just nice to get in and drive. It does triple duty and does it moderately on all fronts so I'm not mad at all.

Not to bad, mine put down 313hp and 328trq last year b4 the cam and stall. Haven't had time to dyno my current setup.
