My car is an auto and I had Sam do the conversion to LS3 valvetrain. You can retain the L99 stuff and buy a good VVT cam but if you are an auto I would convert and get rid of the AFM/DOD junk.

Comp Cams makes some good stuff too. Don't get all caught up in these custom "Secret" grinds. It's quite ridiculous really and there is only so much you can do with lift, duration, lobe separation etc.. If they don't advertise the specs of the cam don't buy it. It's not rocket science and too many shops do this thinking they have some secret cam formula. There are plenty that advertise their specs and have great products!

Good luck with whatever you do to your car. All of its fun and seeing the improvements is even more exciting.

I have an LS3. And thanks, i'll definitely look at the LPE GT9

Probably the cam I'll switch too when I SC next year.

i tried to look for videos on the lpe gt9, but it's hard to find one without a procharger as well. lol But the ones i did hear, there wasn't much lope. is there anything a little more aggressive? I don't want over the top, but when i'm at idle, i'd like to hear a little lope.

LOL, yeah, I'm glad they're driving my car that way I don't have to race them either.

They are no joke and they aren't afraid to go balls to the wall. We're going to be working more on the car. Would love to see them in the 11's and frustrating all the dudes. Not that women aren't already good at that. haha.

And thanks for the compliments. They all take after their Mom. Thank goodness.

That's good news Son! LOL. Getting a cammed car back for the first time is pretty exciting. When I got mine and got to get on it for the first time, I was like "Oh yeah"! Huge difference. I did a few other things but still NA and it runs awesome..
