lt1 cam help

[M_Juntti]

That is (in red) the Advertised Duration @ .006 lift also.
The duration @ .050 that you need to worry about is .242/.248 @ .050.

This is the SAME cam that is in Red's car that we used for her 383.
420 hp N/A with a 6-speed.

And the 227 heads are made to fit the LT4 intake ONLY!

And this would be a concern for me right here!
This is straight from AFR's site: http://www.airflowresearch.com/index.php?cPath=27_32

Standard rockers can be used but the intake rocker arm will be at a slight angle and the roller tip will not be perfectly centered on the valve tip.
Not recommended for street use, unless shaft mount rocker is used.

Hope you have some serious cash laying around because a shaft system is 1000 +.

the intake manifold is an edelbrock rpm airgap LT4 i believe i said that.. http://www.jegs.com/i/Edelbrock/350/...FcZM5Qod3Fxcrg

i know about the shaft mount rockers, and im going to get them. i ****ing love how everyone that reads what im goin to do has a shit

What are you talking about Joel?!? you didnt know that all it takes to have a fast car is $10,000 and a phone call to summit!?

[ThreeHonks]

ok let me know when its done. I will happily run you anytime and show you what well-matched parts are all about

[ThreeHonks]

Sorry to offend you. You just seem set in your ways with this build. If you stay in that same direction it will not work out for you. period.

for example, your going to be running shaft mount rockers with a hydraulic roller cam.

[M_Juntti]

im not set in my ways, im open for discussion. you have something then offer it instead of laughing pointing and insulting... thats all i have seen you do, i havent seen you come out and say well why dont you do this instead because this wont work... all i see are insults

--Double post auto merged--

and by the way, i never said i was an expert at this, i have been do a ton of reading and learning a lot, i didnt just throw a list of parts together i did a ton of reading on each one, any concerns please present them im willing to listen and learn

[ThreeHonks]

Those are just some high dollar parts. I would love to explain it all but it takes a lot of time. talk to some people over on ls1tech and do some research on differnt builds with what has worked and what hasnt

[DETROITMUSCLE]

I think you could build a car with your 11 second goals for wayyyyy cheaper than what you have planned, my question is what do you want out of the car? Drag, road racing, daily driver, what about hp? Those factors will decide which direction you go. Why build the car for a shot of nitrous then have to change the setup to a lower comp and then throw a massive blower on it? Just do one or the other the first time. What about trans, rear end, fuel, suspension those should all be a part of your package. Let us know your goals and we will have a better chance at helping you out.

Though it seems like you guys are back on track (thank you for that), let's make sure we keep it civil guys.

[QUOTE=DETROITMUSCLE;520453]I think you could build a car with your 11 second goals QUOTE]


did I miss something where you only wanted 11's out of the car?

If so, you can easily do that by porting the stock heads, with stock displacement (350 or 355 c.i.d.) and still have a hydraulic roller cam! build a pretty strong 355 that runs 11's on motor and spray 100 shot to it and crack high 10's!

he didn't say it in this thread but another that he started he mentioned wanting to beat his boss or someone at his work, that guys car ran high or mid 11s if I remember correctly. This is why I question his build, its sooo overkill and expensive.

Exactly. those heads are probably the best that the LT1 has now (for purpose built cars). wiht minor port and polish work they can flow really well. But they do take quite a bit of supporting mods to run them EFFECTIVELY

[DETROITMUSCLE]

well my boss and almost everyone i work with has a camaro or has had a camaro at one point, but my main boss has an older fix body mustang that he had built up and is kicking about 480rwhp, he always loses to my other boss who drives an 86 iroc that he built himself, what i want to do is leave them both in the dust at the track lol. the iroc is running high 11s and the mustang is about 2/10 of a second behind him

this was his original goal for his car.

[1BADAIR]

this was his original goal for his car.

that mst be 1 happy dyno. 480 and only mid 11's

[DETROITMUSCLE]

maybe it weighs more than your car

I like seeing the thread over on LS1tech. they told you the EXACT same thing that I said, and they bashed you the same way. But they will point you in the right direction and give you some very good information. just like I was trying to do
