supercharger related: replacing broken 6.0 with a .... 5.3?
#11
I had no complaints, but really don't want anything more radical than what it was. It was a little soft on the bottom end compared to the Lunati I had in there before the S/C, but it was very nice for low RPM light throttle situations. And was definitely stronger than the Lunati at upper RPM range.

5.3 + CNC heads should be just fine.....What was the actual POWER number you are trying to maintain? And if the bottom end was soft in your opinion with that cam in a 6.0L it will be even worse in a 5.3L. It does not take much cam to make a whole lot of power with forced induction...

Honestly, I have no idea what it made power wise.
On a stock LS2, the e-force is advertised at 599 HP at the flywheel. I had a cam and headers upgrade, so I'd like to think it was closer to 650 at the flywheel. It made enough to slow-walk a Nissan GTR on the highway.
I'm probably going to reach out to some of the cam gurus and see what they'd recommend. I don't want/need something radical at the low-speed/lowRPM driving conditions.

1st step is deciding what you wanna do for heads, then spec a cam once that’s decided. Personally your old cam needed more boost to take advantage of the valve events. You want to optimize cyl pressure if your shooting for something that’s responsive down low. ESP if moving to a 5.3
