LS9 vs. Lingenfelter GT9 cam
I am trying to decide between these two cams. I will be running a supercharger, 1 7/8" LT headers, and either 3.70 or 3.73 rear gear set.
LS9 211/230 .558/.552 122.5 CL GT9 215/247 .629/.656 121 CL I am interested in a very smooth idle, without any noticeable lope. I want to maintain stock reliability. My goal is for the average person, ie the wife, not to be able to notice. I have a manual transmission and unfortunately spend a lot of time in stop and go traffic. Lingenfelter, has recommend the GT9, my shop the LS9. Is anyone using either of these? Can you describe the ride qualities of the vehicle after the swap? These are the components I intend to swap as well: http://www.lingenfelter.com/mm5/merc...Category_Code= http://www.lingenfelter.com/mm5/merc...Category_Code= http://www.lingenfelter.com/mm5/merc...Category_Code= |

Ping Andy at ADM performance .. he probably has installed the GT9 in a few cars and could probably let you know who and they can give their opinion .. with the high LSA on those cams I think they will both sound about stock .. LOL ..
I have ADMs stage 1 cam which is close to the ls9 cam I have been told .. stop and go traffic all day and no issues .. I doubt the GT9 would have any issues either and will make a bit more power I'd guess .. Crowley

I like the looks of the LPE cam specs the best and I bet it would have stock like idle and drivability from that LSA. It would also make full use of a set of ported heads with that lift and could really make some power I bet.
