I like it so far. It's definitely different from the stock clutch. It takes some getting used to but after you get used to it, it's good to go. I have a little CRX as my DD and the clutch in that thing is so soft a small child could engage it..Big difference driving the Camaro one day and then the CRX the next..I almost put my foot through the CRX floor the first day I drove it after driving the Camaro...

well going down to a 3 3/4 pulley and installing lts and hi flows...was 560rwhp with no mods other than sc@ 7.5 boost with 4 1/8 pulley..i,m thinking that with the drop down pulley and lts , would put me in the 10 range , but now with the s/c cam kit might be able to keep it @ 9,s...thinking i might be close to the 700rwhp when dyno..next thursday goes for pulley, lts ,cam kit, dual fuel pump, seperate clutch reservoir, line lock and custom tune by mike norris..x my fingers drivetrain holds up till summer..

We have designed a cam kit "Specifically" for top mount blowers, on the LS3 based camaro. It took 3 years worth of development, but we finally nailed it. We didnt just pick numbers out of the sky, or go for the biggest we could stuff in the car. We based our cam off of flow bench testting, engine dyno testing, chassis dyno testing, and manufacturers flow data, of the components.
In our opinion (as well as Camaro customers who own it) we feel it is hands down, the best Cam there is for these cars. We just ran it on a Maggie, about 3 weeks ago, and made 678rwhp 607rwtq, at 8psi. We had much more in it, but the owner didnt want to go any further. I think if we put another 1--2psi, we could have shattered the 700rwhp mark, on 91 octane. The car drive perfect, with no siurging, or bucking. Its got a decent exhaust rumble, as well as a slight rock/shake of the car. Just enough for everyone around you to know its cammed. If you need it, when you order, make sure you reference the TPE_G5 cam kit. This forum doesnt allow me to list the price, but it is very in expensive, in relation to the parts you receive. We include the Cam, Chrome Moly pushrods, adjustable timing set, dual springs, titanium retainers, locks, base, water pump gaskets, crank seal, front cover seal, and a few other items. It is literally 100% of everything you need, to convert over to the TPE_G5 cam. [/End of TPE Marketing Commercial] Now back to your regularly scheduled broadcast.. Hey Will at APF. Call me. Ive been trying to call you for a few months now. |

Will Do..
This week is EXTREMELY tough for me to have any time to talk. We are in the last 5 days of moving in to our new facility, and were probably 15 days behind. Were shutting down on Wednesday, and wont re-open till tues of next week. This should give us the time we need. Ill try to give you a call tomorrow (well, today since its 2am). |

Wow! Incredible numbers. I have similar setup without headers only it's a LS3 conversion with LS9 cam.
I not getting near those numbers. (550) I had it tuned on a hot day however. I'll be back to see John, maybe this March |
