what kind of gains can i expect with an lt-1 cam, in my 305 with flowmasters, everything else is stock except, no cat, no smog, open element air filter.

 

without headers, i wouldnt expect too much

 

silly me i forgot about my headers, slp's

 

What are the specs on an LT1 cam and the part numbers for the one to put in a 305(lo3)???

 

About 30hp and a lot stronger powerband. The smaller displacement 305 will do more with the 350 cam than the 350 does.

 

.447/.459 205/207 duration 115 lsa for the 96 lt1, all the other ones are right about that.

 

I just got my lt1 cam in and i need to know what to do with the dowel pin.. ive heard to hit it in all the way, pull it out, and someone said to hit it in like .300 in or something like that.?

 

I ground mine off until it was flush with the timing gear.

 

How bullet proof are the LT1 cams? ....well, like at what milage would you not buy a used one at?

 

roller cams pretty much don't wear out. So unless the engine ran starved for oil and scared the cam then it should work fine. I have used one that had several little pits in it and it worked great for years.

 

I just talked to this salvage yard in Alabama, and this guy says the LT1 cams out of the mid 90's Camaros, won't work in our cars. This guy is on crack right? I mean, the LT1 cams we're always talking about on here, are out of those cars right?
