Cam/stall questions
Does anyone know what the stock stall speed is on the 05 c6?
Is anyone running a cam with the stock stall? If so, what is the cam and how does it feel?
Finally, anyone here running a tr224/114 cam. I'm looking for numbers on it in a bolt on ls2.

Picked up a little over 35 rwhp (have kooks headers w/hi flows, stinger intake, magnaflow cat back).

My intent was to say that JUST THE ADDITION OF THE CAM gave me over 35 rwhp. I put the other list there to explain that I have additional hp for the poster so he could understand my "pushing at the brakes" comment. I had previously picked up about 29 rwhp with headers/exhaust/cai, for a grand total of 64rwhp increase over stock. However, the brake push comes from bumping the idle to account for the cam.

The car idles at 600 stock. Even a mild cam is going to bump that up 150 to 250 RPM's.
Like BigRon said, it will push hard against the brakes, and flat take off on you if you don't brake it.
I changed mine to a Yank SS3200, and my idle is at 850RPM's with a 224/228 cam.
