Cam Specs

[ravioli]

In a C-5.... What kind of gains can I expect with just a new cam....? Horsepower and torquue wise....? Stock heads cleaned up a little...? What size cam would give the most high performance street and strip...? Ciao.. Ravioli

I am going to assume more street than strip...

Just go with a 224/224 XE-R cam from any of our vendors that sale them. If you don't mind a lumpy idle get the 112lsa for better low-end punch. This cam has been around for a while and a proven performer. As you go larger sacrifices grow also....

If you do it with an UD pulley I would say 30ish RWHP, assuming you have all the supporting bolt-ons.... maybe 370ish RWHP with a PCM tune...

I got 50rwhp with a cam/springs/tune
but I did already have all the bolt-on's header, air-intake, injectors
The cam sec's are 228/230 590 112LSA

I got 65rwhp from an LG G5X3 112 lsa cam and tune only.
