Cam Headers Intake Tune 446 RWHP 430 RWTQ

[JANNETTYRACING]

9PM just got off the dyno.

We just finished a Cam, Pushrod, Trunion, Valve spring, Retainer, Seal, cam gear, All Comp Cams except the gear.

Also Dynatech Headers and cats in to existing Corsa cat back, topped off by a Rotofab intake.

I tuned this one with HP Tuners on the Superflow, Spent a lot of time on Idle quality, Startup, throttle response, this is a pretty big cam, I will let Tim fill you guys in on the specs, if he wants to

The Results Best Pull 446 RWHP, 430 RWTQ.

Here is a dyno sheet with this car layed over another strong car with 377 RWHP 382 RWTQ for comparison.

Noice LS3 or L99?

[COBRA CAMANDER]

Flippin sweet! I can't wait to bang some gears, and punish those back tires. I think I need to get a video camera so you y'all can here it. Hell, I can't wait to hear it!

looks good Ted...just a question...you said it was a pretty big cam ...any idea why lg motorsports g6x3 with the same supporting mods get to 495hp? 50whp more? while having a similar (5whp lower) baseline???Its just an observation...how much bigger can you truly go?

First Customer Researched and selected the Cam.

Second, I would be very sceptical of a Claim Like that, I have been building engines since 1979 If you can find 20 hp with one good cam over another already strong cam your doing great.

As I stated above, I pulled a Sheet from a Very Strong Stocker I had on file, I don't know what the Baseline of this particular car is, but I would expect it to be in the 370s.

Cam, headers and cold air kit does not Gain 115 RWHP Sorry I have to call

What is most impressive is the Broad torque curve, I suppose If I Spun the Motor another 1000 RPM with an even Bigger Cam I could find More hp, BUT at what expense of torque where you drive most.

I am confident that Tim will Be happy with this combo.

Besides it Sounds cool.

No it's just how much dyno's vary ...

Nice Job JANNETTY ... That car should move out nice , A good DD

Im with you on this. A nice torque curve is better than peak HP for a street car.

[SGOS252382]

On my LS2 GTO, I made 95 rwhp with a custom cam from flowtech http://www.flowtechinduction.com/, full exhaust, intake, tune.

This was also a pretty conservative cam and had excellent street manners.

So you can make impressive gains with just a cam, exhaust, intake, and tune.

[mr_desmo]

Heres another car that picked 64whp adding only g6x3 http://videos.streetfire.net/video/L...Cam_153920.htm it looks like its most probably the most widely used big cam in the vette world (and i think comp cam grind them too. )

Definatley hurting in the torque department in exchange for HP at 6500.

See the big dip in the torque curve where it almost the same as stock.

I don't like it.

That dyno graph does look pretty nasty. Looks like it made good HP up top but that's about it. Down low, it didn't do much HP/TQ.

There was a Pretty significant gain in power on the GTOs just from Tuning alone, typically 20-25 GM did not leave us that much room on the Camaros typically 10-15.

The Same goes for the GTO Headers exhaust, and Cold air intakes Bigger gains than from Camaro same mods.

Typically Cams Alone are good for 20-40 RWHP if all supporting mods are already in place and require custom tuning to take advantage of the cam so probably less.

No significant Cam Can be installed without a tune so Who Really knows.

Again Don't Look At the Peak Gain Look at the Torque Curve that is what you feel from the drivers seat and gets you down the 1/4 mile the fastest.

It is about the entire package, everything in the engine has to work together.

The G6X3 has proven itself in Corvette's for close to 2 years now at our shops and others.

The Camaro you see on here with that cam was all customer installed and tuned. It was not done here, we just supplied the parts.

g6x3 is the king of cams for the ls3 in my opinion for the people looking for max na power on a 376ci engine...really nice...

Don't take this personal because it is not, I am sure it is a fine cam if all your looking for is a dyno queen, the big dip in the torque curve is unacceptable IMPO

I have been building engines and drag racing since 1979 and a smaller cam with stronger torque curve will always out accelerate a big cam with low torque.

Especially for anything driven on the street Acceleration is what it is all about.

Kind of like a Positive displacement VS Centrifugal, Torque is a Blast to drive.

I am sure your line of cams are fine and I am sure you have something more Street oriented that does not give up much HP but makes a stronger torque curve.

There are only so many lobes to choose from

If the torque curve is bad in low rpms why did OrangeChevyII run so fast with this cam after the car bogs to 3000 rpm off the line? You say the tq at that RPM is unacceptable yet it produces 1.61 60ft times where as the stock cam was only able to produce 1.68. If it is unacceptable IYPO the car wouldnt be able to pull itself out of 3k rpm and run 11.29@121 NA. The car is in 1st gear the first 120ft down the track.Half of that distance (60ft) would be below 4k rpm where you "dont like it".
You do know you are only below 5k rpm the first 130ish feet of a 1320ft racetrack right? The car will never see below 5k rpm the other 1190 ft. That is where the peak power really shines and produces NA times a full half second faster than anyone else out there running NA "cam only".For that matter its faster than the heads cam cars. Only ONE NA car is close to the times this G6X3 with its sloppy TQ curve!

It looks to me like you just need a reason why it makes 50 rwhp more.
If it were to make 525rwhp with heads on it would you call BS also?

I like Janetty style; and so far they have been more then helfull for everybody. They are well informed etc...BUT they cant put down the best cam of the vette world (no its not only big talk...go on the corvette forums to see what its about....NUMEROUS NA 10 seconds cars without anything more then a set of headers ,this cam and drag radials. Its recognized as the best road racing cam too. http://www.youtube.com/user/OrangeCh.../2/tPH_vWePCNk
-stock with a tune vs lontubes with a tune
-longtubes, adm cai ,g6x3 and a tune...

[mr_desmo]

look at the upside graph JANETTY because 340 foot pounds at 2050rpm is hardly bad. In fact its BETTER THEN STOCK. And how is almost 100whp at 6500rpm????

How is that cam on the street? Or is it primarily a race cam?
Can that cam be used as a good daily driver cam?

Thanks

on the corvette people put this cam on daily drivers and like it...a LOT depends on the tune with a cam. Do a search on youtube for g6x3 ...on www.digitalcorvettes.com and corvetteforum.com

Well, I am glad I got everyone to talk it was getting too quiet around here.

Oh, don't get your panties in bunch, Don't forget this it Typing, no Emotion hand gestures, or facial expression.

Since you brought it up a 1.6 anything 60 ft. in 121 mph car is sad, should be going high 1.4s if it had enough torque.

That would put the car in the 10s at 121.

Races are won in the first 60 ft.

Sorry If I seem a little partial to acceleration but my Sled goes 1.1s in 60 ft 4.9s at 140 in 660 ft. and my 73 Camaro goes 1.3s on the rear tires.

You see when I was 19 I had a cam that made big power but it would not 60 ft. so I learned.

All though it was good on the hard compound Pro Trac L-60-15s

Guys Please don't take offense it is all in good fun and discussion only.
