Yea my dyno graph fell off hard at 5100 with the stock cam.
A decent cam will let it pull to 6k easy.
Like the isky triple 12 or the Z06 cam.

I want to go with the same cam you were considering.... TU1

How much you want for that ls6 cam?... what else is required for the swap on my nnbs? I already have springs and push rods in.

I believe just smoothing the tune out and getting the fueling right with meth will net me a LOT of power....

Installed a triple 12 cam and dropped it off at the tuner tuesday. He just sent me this in a picture message and said he was going to turn the meth on now.



Why is my boost not holding to 12# though?

The cam is causing less of a restriction thru the engine. You will need to turn it up or add a stiffer spring to the wg.

Keep in mind these pulls are in second gear with 24 inch rims, so the numbers are conservative. Im ready to get it back... Should be fun to drive.
