I believe he has stock unported LS6 heads.

Those numbers are right on target for a cam that size. :cheers:

You are correct. Stock unported LS6 heads with Comp 921 springs.

How much does it lope at idle? I'm curious. I know a guy who has a .495/.525 218/225 on 110 or 112 LSA in a v6 stang and his car lopes like a mo fo. Almost wants to die (untuned and stock idle).

I am going to borrow a link that Godspeed posted of his car.
He is running the same parts I am but, I believe he still has the Ti exhuast whereas I am running the Borla Stingers. So for lope and idle; they sound the same. Mine is just 20-30% louder.

I am working on converting my video from analog to digital. Then I will find a place to host and have it up.

I was looking into getting this cam as well. where would be the best place to purchase it and how much do they go for. I have a 99 C5 M6, with LS-6 intake 30lb injectors off road H pipe, corsca cat back and tuning. What kind of HP should I expect. Are there any other upgrades I should get that would compliment this combo? thanks in advance. :cheers:

You have to buy it from LG Motorsports.

They are vendor on the left side.

Cam + retainers + springs is probably 800-1000 dollars I am guessing.

You probably want to do headers too to maximize the gains of the cam.

With an airbox and headers, you should be looking near 400rwhp.

id like to see that bobble head in a stock corvette for comparisons sake. It sure does seem to idle smooth. And seems pretty quiet in the car. I was impressed w/ the lack of surging idle.
