I wouldn't have spent the money on the ls3s.

You going s/c or turbo? If s/c, roots or centrifugal?

Just as was already mentioned, the Lingenfelter GT2-3 with its 207/220 .571/.578 118.5 CL spec’s makes a great camshaft for mildly roots or screw type supercharged applications.

The Lingenfelter GT11 with 215/231 .631/.644 118.0 CL spec’s would probably be a better solution for a slightly more aggressive set-up with more potential.

For max effort supercharged combinations, I would actually look towards either the Lingenfelter GT9 LS9 ZR1 Supercharger Camshaft 215/247 .629/.656 121 CL or the LEP Supercharger Camshaft 224/230 .612/.612 116 CL. Not that either of these wouldn’t work well, but they were designed with lighter weight vehicles in mind. Of course the GT9, GT11 or the LEP camshaft would require the purchase of better springs than what has been mentioned thus far.

Good recommendations Jarrod, I personally like the LEP Supercharger Camshaft for myself, if it were on a 112 or 114 (NA).

Off Topic, but I was just wondering yesterday where you've been, seems like it's been a while since you posted up...glad to see that you're still around!

Mad, really? It isn't the best money spent on a boost engine. But not saying it's a waste. You can make big power with stock 317s and FI. Just saying.

Not going to tell me? Guess I need to go get some tylenol pm's. Going to be hard to sleep tonight.
