LT5 cam upgrade???
I have always wanted a crazy cammed hot rod. Does anyone have a sound clip for a LT5 with the stage 3 cams or is this just silly?
Thanks and regards,
Rob

700 hp of lt5 goodness isn't silly at all
if you need some cams George has some
kirchoffer had the most radical jeal cams on his 415s that sounded pretty nasty
see zr1 net registry website for sound clips

Rob,U r not going to get the same blup blup blup exhaust w a cammed LT5 as u would w a SBC. DOHC don’t need the same level of overlap and lift as an in block cam motor. The additional valves are what add to the breathing. U will get a low rumble more like a big block chevy but coming from a small block displacement.

My 415 with stage III Intakes & stage II Exhaust turns heads when I idle through Cars & Coffee, lopeity-lopping through 3" straight exhaust.

Pete Palatsidis and Marc Haibeck have and are currently building and developing LT5s. Examples of their work abound!
They're both members of the "FBI" and the ZR-1 Net Registry. Suggest U go to that site to reach them.

I have billet cores available. Any profile you need or want. We go much bigger than the Jeals or "Stg III" profiles. All depends on what you want. I've got 255@.050/.500 lift on the 427 shop engine.
