i have a stock 01 trans-am cam and a 02 z06 cam which one would you put in for max performance? i plan on getting a stall sometime in the future and definately a tune.. what do you guys recomend?
and these are the cams i have, so please dont be like all the guys in the shorty headers thread and tell me that they are junk

 

you might want to tell everyone what vehicle/motor this cam is going to go in if not the vette in your sig...

 

sorry.. 5.3 this is the truck forum, i thought everone would know thats what i get for assumeing

 

You need to add the truck to your signature.

Between those cams for max performance, I'd go LS6 cam hands down especially if you plan on a stall. The Fbod cam wouldn't offer much over the stock truck cam.

 

would drivability be an issue with the ls6 cam? how much power could i expect to gain?

 

No driveability problems. And gain quite a bit in the higher RPM's from what ive seen. Its got a pretty high LSA.

 

thats what i want to hear.. how much would i lose down low? and would this cam work pretty well with a blower or turbo in the future

 

Not alot of loss down low. Seems its a pretty good blower cam. So I dont think you have any worries there.

 

sweet.. would i need new springs and pushrods?

 

You'd need LS6 springs. I say you would lose some grunt in the 1000-2500 rpm range. After 3000, it will really start to take off. Should make for a really nice long torque curve that will pull 6500 rpms without blinking. Gains - probably 35+ rwhp peak gains, with over 75 rwhp difference in at 6000 rpms. Torque peak will be moved up the band some. If you have even a mild stall, like the trailblazer converter, that LS6 cam will be real nice.
