Default Which would have more bottom end?

LS6 or GT2-3 cam running a front mount 60-1 on 10#'s with a 2400 stall? I have the TR220 now but the bottom end is too soggy, it's not ideal for my setup and I don't want a bigger stall.

Thanks

you might get more input if you were to post the specs of all three of those cams.

The gt2-3 isnt for low-end, so i vote for the ls6 cam of those two.

The gt2-3 is 207/220 571/578 118.5

most people just get a bigger stall.. you are only under 4k rpms only in 1st gear when racing.. what is the reason why you do not wish to increase the stall speed? i gained nearly 7/10ths at the track going from stock stall speed of 2600 to 3400 on my titan after the cam swap

GT2-3.... IMO the LS6 is too small. the GT2-3 isnt a big cam by any means and will definitely have much more low end than your current cam

Why not the converter? The converter is easier to change than the cam. I would either swap the converter, or turn up the boost (or both). What RPM is your boost coming in at? A single 60-1 seems like a small single turbo to me for a 5.3 anyways.

I have an sts kit on there now That spools between 3100-3600rpm but this weekend Im putting my kb racing setup on Which im hopeing for it to spool between 2500-2800rpm. That would alot better than what I have. But a cam swap would be EASIER and CHEAPER. Than a converter swap. And I don't like spinning my engine to the moon so I dan't need a big cam anyways. I like torque better.
