Re: Cams got you confused???

I dunno if this is the right place to post but here it goes. I have 1997 camaro z28 it has the lt1 as you all know. The owner before me installed pace setter headers and a borla cat-back exhaust system. I also put a cheapy cold air intake on it. My question is what brand of cam or kind of cam would give me the most performance. With the headers cammin this car should be sick... Please reply or tell me where i should post this question.

Thanks

You should join a 4th gen forum and ask them re: your 1997 Camaro.

I'd suggest reading up on the camaroz28.com site in the LT1 forum. Lots of info about cam selections there. Off the top of my head, the LT4 Hotcam, Crane 104227, and the LPE 211/219 cam are often suggested cams for an LT1 with stock heads. There are plenty of others too.
