I have a 02 5.3 that I installed in my 88 Monte Carlo SS backed with a T56 trans, Its completely stock at the moment other then CAI and 1-7/8 Headers. I am picking a set of PRC stage 2.5 heads from a friend of mine and im trying to find out which cam would be the most bang for the buck and work in my application.

I am building the car for AutoX and Road course events and for right now I am leaving the stock truck intake on the motor. Reason being is I am shopping around for a Radix supercharger and cannot justify purchasing a LS6 intake or any aftermarket and them trying to make it work with the truck accessories and change the injector pig tails etc. But given how hard and long I have been looking for one for the right price its part of the reason I would like to H/C swap the motor to pick up more power.

Anyone have any cam recommendations that still maintains good vacuum?

 

id say a tr 220, 112 lsa or if you want more low end grunt a 212/218 low lift cam? would work great with a 2800-3400 stall

 

Im running a T56.... Manual....

 

oo my bad, sry been up since 2am.... haha but ya those cams would be great, if you want a boost cam you can get a isky, or contact PatG and they can hook you up
