with that crane cam dont expect to see the "omg" power difference like some of us see when going to a big cam...imo will gain some power but your only going up a few degrees in duration and a slight bit more lift than the stock cam. I would go up another notch or 2 just my .02

How bout a stock ls1 cam? Would be REALLY cheap.

Camaro/Firebird

99-00 12560965 198/209 .500/.500 119.5
01-02 12561721 196/207 .467/.479 116

or a stock lq4 cam

I do, check out the cam in my sig I gained everywhere with this cam. When I was running on 33's, my truck ran a 16.5@81.7mph with a 2.5 60' time. After installing this cam with tuning, I improved to a 15.6@89.5, with a 2.4 60' time. So I really didn't gain down low, but I didn't lose. Don't forget that I was running on 33's though, which definitely won't help with off the line acceleration

Where would you say most of your power is at in your RPM range? I don't want something too high I'll never use it. It's not a track truck, but it does serve a mud track truck once a month...
