ABOUT TO JOIN THE CAMMED CLUB!!!!!

I just got the majority of the parts i may be needing for the cam install which consist of l99 to ls3 conversion, dual btr springs, hardened pushrods, an ofcourse the camshaft! All i am waiting on now are the ls3 valves,meilling oil pump,powerbond ud pulley, 3500 t/c which steve at rdp is working on for me, and my transmission cooler. according to steve i should be able to have everything in by sometime next week so i cant wait to get this installed tuned and hitting the tracks!!

are you worried about warranty? if youre not pull the trigger in an l99 its lil more pricey since you aveto convert to ls3 for the bigger cams for me personally its costing me close to 3gs with converter valves,valves springs etc.

550hp? I made 420rwhp cammed with an l99 conversion. To motor you're probably going to see just around 500.

I broke my differential in several pieces internally with cam bolt ons. So I'd start thinking about modding it or at least putting posi mod.
