Goal = Complete Street Car with maybe 75more hp. Stock everything else, maybe some tuning.

60.9cc LS6 CNC Ported head w/GT2-3 Camshaft.

GT2-3 CAM = 207/220 571/578 on 118.5
STOCK = 204/218 551/547 on 117.5

300CFM at 0.500" lift. What is stock 275?

Anyone know the stock cc on a stock LS6 head? The car has run 11.8s@117+ completely stock down to the air filter. Do you think this would get me past the 120mph barrier? who has tried this combo?
See the specs at lingenfelter.com

Some have had great results with that combo.....

Our stock heads are 64 cc and flow in the area of 255 cfm....

I would guesstimate this package would make in the area of 425whp/400wtq with supporting bolt-ons(headers, intake, etc.)

Good Luck!

That cam seems quite small for the gains your seeking.

I don't think your going to see 425 rwhp out of that cam. Chambers are supposed to be 64.4cc and flow is in the 270 range for a stock 243 head. For the MINIMAL increase in duration and lift, I would go with 1.8 rockers first, you would get about the same results.

I assume you're going for a stealth approch with the cam?? If so, you could up the duration and lift with comp xe lobes and spread the lsa like you have and pick up some good power. My "v" has a small LSK 223/228XER 116+3, idles like stock, except the lobes are noisy, takes the stealth approach away, still clean on the sniffer to.

Not an expert, but that cam is a waste of $$ on a ZO6. If you want a baby cam, get a 220/224@ 114 and get perfect street manners, and a real gain.
