How to pick the right custom cam??? :)

Hello guys I'm a little new at this whole cam things.

I have an ss manual.....with K&n intake n MAss air flow sensor.

I'm planing on adding

Pacesetter or TSP longtube headers
Pacesetter or TSP off-road connection pipes
(which LT of this 2 do you guys recommend?)

Currently looking into a comp cam ....but don't know how to chose the correct one with this set up. :(

Any help??

Call adm performance - Andy has several options for you. Gt11 is a great cam but you really should talk to a pro and discuss you end goals. Good luck

30+ Years engine building experience Helps, this is why you choose your favorite Vendor to sell you a cam for your Set up.

I see you are from Houston. Call Owen or Jay at ARD (Advanced Racing Dynamics) and talk to them. They have put more cams in 5th gen Camaros than anyone in the Houston area. Plus you want someone who can tune YOUR car after the cam is installed. You can also come to one of the Htown Camaro Club (there is a website) get togethers if you would like to see how mild or wild you want to go. We have anything from stock, to mild to all out blown, nitrous LSX motors.

Picking a Cam is like Picking a woman :-)
Do you want it off the shelf (Street) or Custom (call girl)? :-)

Talk to Ted! The man Knows!
