okay so i bought a lq9 6.0 with a cam 224/224 @.050 duration lsa 113 .555/.567
I want to see if anyone has ran this cam or has heard about them is it good to make power I'm gonna swap this lq9 in my clone ss single cab, for street/strip goals mid or low 12sec truck. i have seen the 224/224 lsa 112 .561 on both side, a ls1 maro with bolt on's an 3600 stall hit high 11sec.. just comparing cams
hope to get info..
wat stall should i run for my goals 3200 or 3600 i have 4:10 gears

 

Post the truck that ran high 11s with that cam, converter combo bc ive never seen one run high 11s with that cam.


Put a set of PRC 2.5 heads, an intake, 1 3/4" LTs or even 1 7/8" if you dont care, run a 4:10-4:30 an a 12.3-12.5 is in your future

 

lol, was a ls1 maro...

 

I don't if this would help, but I had a 221/226 .566/.562 114+1 ran a 12.94 @ 103, in a ecsb. So I'd think you could run mid 12's maybe with the right setup.

 

what stall an gear were you running?.. currently i have gm 4:10's an looking for a stall..

 

Circle-D 278mm 3200, 4:30's
Setup back then, with some dyno numbers & track time

14.14@97mph-2.17 60FT,M/D 3rd locked 351/363 before heads & stall
ET 13.25@100-1.86 60ft,With 3:73's
New ET 12.94@103mph-1.74 60ft, With 4:30's,D/J 3rd locked 371/389

 

honestly for your goals try to get nothing less the 228 duration cam and i think your lq9 will like a little more lift then that ..

this si a perty banging deal since your truck is a bit heavyer then a camaro it will act a little looser so youll get a higher stall speed ..maybe like a 3500 or 3600

 

pm sent with real advice


jk....scooter is a good buddy and the slo one from california is also a good buddy.

 

That cam with a good converter, gears should do well. prob would like boost if you ever put it to it down the road..

 

Why does he need such a large cam? More than one 5.3 has run mid 12s with LOW 220s duration cams.
