Texas Speed VVT3 Camshaft Picks Up 80 RWHP!!! - Page 3 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Ject · 11-07-2010, 05:22 PM

I really like to figure out what kind of cam I want to buy from Texas Speed but its so confusing as to what Cams they have for sale if any for the Automatic cars...

I PM'd a while back to someone on giving me a site link or a list of what is available and... Nothing.

Anyone know the cams available and prices?

Love the sound!!

Thats some pretty good gains for a L99.

NewGen · 11-07-2010, 10:17 PM

That actually sounds good

Hmm, on the site it looks like all the VVT cams come with new springs. I'm guessing you;ll have to pull the heads for the install?

The AFM-1 AFM-2 AFM-3 camshaft was built with afm friendly lifters so you do not have to swap lifters. The VVT-1 VVT-2 VVT-3 camshafts require a lifter swap to LS3 style lifters so you can run these more aggressive lobes.

We just installed PRC heads on the L99 car & it's up 100rwhp with heads & the VVT-3 camshaft!

Best band ever btw...

Am I correct with my presumption that these VVT cams are for the L99 (I think I've read a bit about getting good VVT cams for the L99 or maybe I'm confusing something else)? And what is this DOD delete? Sorry if they're dumb, still learning.

VVT & DOD are all L99 terms. DOD = Displacment on Demand..

These are the non-aftermarket castings correct?

OK. So, I really want to understand this a little better.

I have a 2011 SS Camaro L99 Auto. I want to put a cam in there that will give me at least 50 RWHP, and has a nice lope to it.

I really want to get rid of DOD/AFM through tuning, etc. Which is the best cam to go with for this from TSP?

I want to have a CAI, Long tubes, cat delete (South Carolina no inspections), and I am really liking the new Borla Attack exhaust.

AFM and DOD, what the hell was GM thinking with these cars? I mean really... You want that, buy the 6-cyl for gas mileage.
