Any cam only numbers??????
I am looking for a c6 manual that has cam only with headers, CAI and maybe thermostat. I am trying to see what kind of numbers you guys are getting. I have talked with geoff at Thunder Racing and also have had 2 ls1 cars with cams. I am thinking I will be going with a cheatr cam this go round to keep the car sounding stock. Goeff is working on a bigger cheater for the ls2 as we speak and am hoping to have the first one installed. He said with the bigger cubes he can make it larger. He's thinkg 30-45 at the wheels with the headers on the car so I am hoping for somewhere in he neighborhood or 410-425 to the wheels with Kooks 1 7/8, stock cat-back,vararam, and 160 themostat. So I want to see if others are getting similar numbers with cam only..NO Heads or Fast intake. Thanks Guys.

I did LG's Executive cam with my A6 vert and hit 400 hp and almost 390 tq to the wheels. Baseline was 330 hp and 334 tq.Manual should hit more closely to the number you want! Mods were cam, LG headers w/cats, Halltech and underdrive pulley. Heads, exhaust and intake are stock.

There is a graph of a C6 on this forum that hit 447 with the torquer 2 cam from Texas Speed. I think that what I'm getting.
If I were you I'd go bigger than a cheatr cam. Sacrificing your warranty for a very small cam, is not worth it.
At least do the 224/224 on a 114, or the better yet, the 224/227. It's your decision though. Both of those cams are sold by Thunder.

I have seen similar numbers out of a cheater and 224 with headers on the car. Ireally don't think its that small of a cam when you look at lift numbers. Like I said Goeff is making the cheater a little larger due to the more Cubes in the LS2. I am going after the stealth approach. If I bring it to the dealer I don't want them looking at me crazy and want to deny my warranty on the spot(or try too). If my warranty does get trampled on, them I am gunna put 232/236 cam in that sucker and make it sound mean. For right now I want to bust some peoples azz then tell the the car is basically stock.
