cammed ls3
we all know what a cammed ls3 can do power wise, theres quite of few cammed bolt ons ls3s in the 500rwhp mark. but, thats maily for internet braggin! how do these cammed monsters hold up at the track (aka the real dyno). im curious to see what these will run. im comfident they will put up a good number. im not really big on dyno numbers cuz dyno numbers dont tell the whole story, i got a 2800lbs 260rwhp 5.0 dippin in the mid 12s. again im not trying to bash anyone or hurt anyones feelings, just want to know what ill be getting myself into

Well 1 of them has already been 10's in the 1/4 mile. I have taken my car to the track, but I only got 1 run in due it being so crowded. I went 12.0@124.13mph in + 1685' DA air.
Before you start flipping out on the 12.0 part, it was a horrendous 2.1 60'. Don't worry about the ET, I could have obliderated my best ET that night had I decided to stick around and run 1 more time(my best 60' on the stock runflats is a 1.94). However, draw your attention to my mph. When the winter rolls around, my car should have no issues running 126~127mph. When I actually 60' the car the way I usually do, mid 11's will not be a problem.

no, PEAK hp numbers dont tell the whole story. a dyno graph with lots of area under the curve (espeically the torque curve) tells a lot about how the car will feel on the street AND perform at the track.
