Looking for a CAM set up for L99.
I'm looking to get a cam and I'm not sure which one also what set ups to go with . I figure if I'm gonna do the cam I should replace the springs and valves ... Etc . Could some one give me some ideas on cams and packages aswell as prices.
Thanks much appreciated ! |

Im here in california and I got quoted 2,500 with cam springs and tune. The labor was ten hours worth of work. There is a few sites that has a 600 dollar kit for a ls3 conversation that has all the brackets and all u need to get after that is the cam and springs. My tuner suggested a gt3 cam but I have not read up on that cam yet.

You dont need new valves. Most people think it is a waste of money unless you are building a racecar

What about that whole dropped valves ordeal with some LS3? Why did that happen btw? Was it just a bad batch?

Lethal Racing just designed a healthy cam for the L99 that does not require a stall converter

I had the shop switch cams in the Camaro to be boost friendly otherwise I would not have done the LS3 conversion. Switched from a Mast Stage II VVT cam to a custom LS3 style turbo cam. The car lost 12tq down low and picked up 7hp up top. Having said that I will be selling the Mast VVT cam now that the LS3 switch is complete.
