Default Cam'd LS3 results! BTR Stage 4

Just wanted to share my cam'd LS3 results. One big reason for this is because when I was researching on which cam I wanted, I couldn't really find too much info on it.


I decided to go with the BTR Stage 4 cam. Along with the cam I went ahead and did:
7.4 pushrods
BTR valve springs/retainers
BTR Trunion kit
Melling Oil pump
Katech timing chain
LS2 timing chain dampener
ATI crank pulley


I bought the car and it already had bolt ons/tune. No clue how much power since I bought the car from a dealer and it was modded.


I took the car to Justune out of Kansas City, MO area. I personally think he did one hell of a job on the tune. I ended up making 480hp 444tq.


Mods on the car
Halltech MF103 (beehive)
LG 1 3/4 headers, 2.5in Catted x-pipe
Factory NPP mufflers
of course BTR stage 4 cam


The car does start up and rev perfectly. Install was excellent and very professional as well. The car does buck under 1500rpms if you aren't accelerating. Had the cruise control set at 70mph on the way home and the car never bucked. It will take some time to get used to!


Car pulls so nice, use to not spin the tires from a 2nd gear 50mph punch, but now it does. Pulls hard from 3500-7000rpms, its a very smooth power band as well. No complaints at all about the cam, its everything that I was looking for.


Here's a cold start video!

Great results! I have the same Cam and other mods as you except for 1 7/8 catless headers.

Are you running it all the way out to 7k?

Yes sir, I usually try to shift it around 6800-7000rpms.

Thanks for the compliments guys. If anybody wants to ask me anything about the cam, please feel free!
