I keep looking at the very limited area to bring in outside air with a CAI. I'm going to do a washer bottle kit relocation to free up another small outside air intake port where it used to be blocked.
The current port looks smaller than a 12oz beverage can sideways. How is 700hp supposed to breath through that? Thinking how my 1/2 hp shop vac pulls a vacuum on a hose. Maybe I'm all wrong but that's how it looks to me.

The LSA 87mm throttle body makes the same power as the 90mm LS3 throttle body is test after test, it's what we use. We feel the big gulp is a useful upgrade and it does direct more air into the filter, pretty simple.

I've enjoyed this conversation and it's always great to get expert opinions on the internet. If you have any further questions we'd be happy to answer.

Kind regards,

My info cam from your website. So your just bad at advertising what comes in your package. Didn't see anywhere in your description about timing chain, trunnions, or BTR springs. I searched for 20 minutes for your "LSA camshaft package" and gave up. Website can't pull up with a LSA cam kit search. But it will pull up everything under the sun besides a cam shaft. I compared your kit with my build price to see what a shop would charge for a similar build as I did. Didn't see a few things that should have been in there so that's y I asked.

Or you could drill down into Camaro parts and find everything that you wanted to know right here. Took me all of 10 seconds, and I don't frequent their website:

.... Camaro / Camaro ZL1 / Engines/Engine Parts / Camshafts/Valvetrain / JDP Motorsports - 2009-15 CTS-V/Camaro ZL1/Corvette ZR1 6.2L

Yea I found the same page too after I went directly to engine-cam shaft- scroll through 59 cams and find the package at the bottom. Thought thats what search features are for, to narrow down results. Apparently just not on this website.

So, why are you tearing apart his advertising and web page? You have your build, be happy with it. We don't need to hear you bashing a vendor here. It's just not right

I'm not bashing a vendor, I seen a build list that appeared to be missing a few key mods to keep engine together so I mentioned them. He corrected me then I simply pointed out how well the search feature on the website worked.

This sounds like bashing to me! It is certainly not a question or positive message. Maybe it's the internet and the tone does not carry. I'll leave this alone now, but I felt it necessary to make a comment. I know how hard it is to build a good reputation and it doesn't take much to ruin one.

"So let's pay 11k+ to drop a valve and pull timing bc there iats are so hot bc their brick is collapsed after running 15+ psi bc you didn't wanna include a $75 service...."
