Im putting together an stock 5.3l for boost, and I had this cam sitting at my shelf..
Comp cam
In - ex
620-589
293-293
239-240
113+5 lsa
Had heads refresh3angle valve job,and good springs.

 

Anyone?!

 

Is this for a turbo or supercharger? In either case it seems a bit large for a 5.3 if I am reading the numbers correctly. Stock48 has proven you dont need a large cam in these engines to move out under boost.

 

I'm going turbo.

 

isky triple 12 cam is proven for turbo

look it up

 

That cam is way too big if it is a 239°/240° .620"/.589" 113° +5° (108° ICL).
That looks like a normally aspirated cam for a street 402. And that ICL is weird.
You want something more like a 218°/218° .530"/530" 115° +2° (113° ICL). The MAX I would go on a turbo 5.3 is a 224°. You don't need huge lift numbers either as the heads probably will not flow that lift.

 

Ok, thanks..

 

So if I decide to use an lq9 ? Would the cam work? , I know someone has an lq9..

 

See the multiple replies above, same applies to the boosted 6.0

 

Thanks.
