ls1 hotcam
 

what is so great about th ls1 hotcam?

cause it Hot Hot Hot...






nothing. its all about what you want your truck to do and where you want your power at. cams are all similar, whether they are a lunati cold cam or a GM hot cam.

well where does the power come in with a hot cam?? LOW END i gotta get some more pull outta my truck!

for low end i hear the 212/218 is a good cam

I would throw in a stall, these trucks dont seem to make the power down low. We put a stall in my friends crew cab short short bed with no cam and it was night and day. I would go with a mild cam, maybe a tr220 and a tb stall cause their cheap.

GM Hot cam FTL.

my 212/218 and stall work nice. i was pulling 2.1 60ft's with 20" rims/tires and 3.23 gears n/a..... spinning a pretty good bit.

only thing that i've heard good about the hot cam, is the way it sounds. it really has some lope at idle. do a search on ls1tech forum, a lot of f-body guys run it.

what is the tb stall rated at and where can i find it......what stall did you put in your friends...and made a difference with no cam, good or bad?

the hot cam is to big for you!

People need to calm down on these huge cams. Elaborate on what you are wanting. If you want a snappy throttle with just more low end and al ittle more top end I woud look at a custom grind in the area of 208/212 or 210/212. Great for torque, anything bigger will only pull torque into your higher rpms and create more HP at 4500 + rpms.

I've been looking at the same cam, I have close to the same mods as you with a 80 shot so I'm interested in opinions as well, I want some lope and more mid to upper power? I will add a tq when I get a cam, probably the tb one. From what I'v read it stalls around 2600 behind a 5.3? On a cheap budget myself so a $700+ tq is out of the question. i can get the tb one for around 100.
