For $25 get a cam spec from a pro - Patrick G. Well respected by users and tuners the other side of the pond. I've had a rec' for myself too. You also get a discount voucher to purchase the grind from one of his suppliers.

camhelp@guerragroup.com

ETA: Peter Knight is the quickest in the UK..... Order by friday, normally in by Monday, if you need it quick that is. Prices for cam/springs/rods, not exessive either.




ETA: Heard that GM parts-Cannock are offering some sensible prices these days, you could try them for the GM Performance cam. That one is worth a look. Has a nice mid range lump in the curve.

LS2 probably the 224/228-114 XER IMO or something similar. Pete will sort you out the right length PR's and valve springs comp 918's etc.

Though actually this new comp LSR one looks good. Similar to GMPP Hot Cam but proper lift.

HYDRAULIC ROLLER-Excellent torque
with a very broad power band.
Great for street performance
and drivability.
Hyd. Hyd. 1500 to 6700 54-456-11 269Lr HR12 269 277 219 227 .607 .614 112°

there are two revisions of that from comp and probably the best grind for road use, emissions etc. Spent a long time looking at them before coming to the realisation for the performance upgrade the 3.91 diff (old cv8) was the best way to go.

I did drive mine after the cam was installed but only to get it mapped didnt want to risk it, also kept the revs under 1800rpm so not to let the cam kick in too much.
