    Okay but that isn't even close to the 75hp gains possible with a well speced cam.... I am sure you got a whole lot more than 40hp with your cam.

    Right, but the LS9 is the best budget cam possible. A full swap, springs and all, for under 400$. Also, no stall is needed.

    thats my #1 reason for thinking about this cam, other choices will add up to at least 1200$ cam 450+springs 250 + rods 150 + front cover and sproket 80

    although i have the older cam form the 5.3 like push rods,springs,front cover,melling oil pump,new timing chain...actually all i need is a cam and gaskets+ seals...

    any opinions?
