torque vs hp

[samnon]

hey i gotta vt ss it makes 866 nm of torque and 269 kw

has just about everything done to it possible without stroking it, i've been looking through the dyno figures and a lot of ls1 seem to be making way more kw than me but not the torque? anyone got any info for me on why?

Different modifications create differences in power output. It's most likely they have a bigger cam than you and that's why they have more KW's.

i gotta 240 248 cam

How much power did your car make before cam modifications?

 

[samnon]

212 kw from mafless, than pretty much done everything cuz the motor killed bearings rods and pistons

This is a ls1 yeah? Did u use the bigger is best approach when u decided on your camshaft?

 

[samnon]

ls1 yeah, and yeah i know cams too big was more after a lumpy idle note than power, originally had a 233 233 cam after change power never changed anyway

 

[Cava454]

No ****, that cam grind is horrible. Be a nugget on the street.

 

[samnon]

driveability actually changed bugger all its auto so not so bad
