yeah they give you a lumpy sound but is a sound worth losing ur low down take off power ?

 

[GEN3RATD]

yeah if you have a dyno queen or its not a daily lol

 

[FORGIVEME]

yeah fair point lmao

 

[GEN3RATD]

id go a massive cam if i wasnt looking at boost, maybe a 238/242 or similar

 

[FORGIVEME]

again thats why i went the cam i did its perfect for psi lol

 

[GEN3RATD]

yeah pretty good cam for boost, although i have seen an LS1 with a 228/230 running 8psi, was making over 400kw too. ill have to dig it up, apperently it had a mad camshaft noise at idle

 

[FORGIVEME]

yeah it prob would have but i dnt wnt to attract any unnessesary attention to myself lol

 

[DrZ]

Well, do you really need low down torque when you have a high stall tho? *isnt that the reason or did i miss the point of them?*

as for the trade of, I am not huge on smashin ppl on the streets, and if i do its from a stand still start (ie lights) if ppl go me while i am driving along i tend to leave them alone or just drop a gear and into better rev range.. plus, if its barely keeping idle while driving along and other road users can hear that an want to go, i just would be like.. Meh... Mines better... and leave them alone to look like fools.. Just like a do right now when stupid cars like excels/getz/jazz etc etc try an look cool..

 

[DrZ]

and 238/242 is maaassive... hahaha can the LS1 even take that sort of lift without substantial modification?

I would only really wana replace springs lifters and a few other when doing a cam swap, an ofcourse the obligatory exhuast swap..

 

[GEN3RATD]

Yes that's the point of a histall. Are you going to thrash the tits off it everywhere you go though?
