Ls3/LSA Conversion w/ NightFury Cam? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

BUNNY15 · 07-01-2015, 10:24 PM

Does anyone here run a NighFury cam with their LSA conversion? Just wondering what kind of RWHP numbers it may put out on the Ls3 motor? 600, 630, 650, 700+??? I'm already considering my winter mods and I'm really leaning toward this.

Not the best cam for an LSA but it'll work

I was planning on this too

Lethal makes a 115lsa Nightfury for supercharged applications, that was my plan too!

BUNNY15 · 07-01-2015, 11:51 PM

But does anyone know the numbers we can expect to see?

there are so many options out there...do you want drivability? pure peak power? i suggest asking your tuner if they have a clue... get a custom grind cam motion cam...low lash solid roller if you wanna spend the extra. who gives a shit about hte nightfury cam. thats not how cams works. you want the right specs for your needs/application. this whole off the shelf cam business is hilarious

Yea I'm well aware that I can get a custom grind, but that wasn't my question. I have a NF which is why I specifically asked about NF In my original post. I didn't ask about driveability because mine is not a daily driver, but I do enjoy driving it when the weather is right. Originally, I was just curious about RWHP.

Scuzz · 07-02-2015, 09:32 AM

Between 600-700. All your supporting mods, what dyno you use, weather conditions on that day, what Pullies you run, all is going to tweak the numbers a little. And fuel, can't forget fuel.

On my LSA blower I was 660 Rwhp on a auto

Thank you.

I don't have any issues with driveability on the nf cam. I daily drive mine

Unreal · 07-02-2015, 12:29 PM

Fuel, and pulley size on blower will dictate what power you make, not cam choice as much. I see no reason to run a cam like that on a blower car. My cam is small on a 427 blower setup and makes 1200rwhp. I don't see a need to overcame a FI car. Let the blower do the work and pair a cam for good efficiency and power band.
