92 Firehawk Cam

I saw on the tech articles that the 92 firehawk cam is like 214/224 with a 115 lobe sep. Thats not TOO far off of the 218/224 112 lobe xtreme cam. With some 50 state heads and proper tuning, could we pass a sniffer with the 218/224 cam? I cant seem to find a firehawk cam, slp doesnt recognize that p/n anymore.

If so then maybe 400 hp isnt out of reach after all!!!

Going with LT1/4 intake and either vortec, TFS G2, or canfield heads....something cheap

Maybe we could even tune a 224/230 cam to be 50 state....maybe thats pushing it!

A cam with any street manners should be able to pass emissions when tuned.

Hey Jasper, I always thought the SLP Firehawk cam was the 51006. Somewhere I have an old printout from when it was still listed on slponline.com.

This old thread also backs up that claim, https://www.thirdgen.org/techbb2/sho...t=Firehawk+cam

Your right, the 51008 is more extreme, 224/230 112lsa, almost sounds like the TR ls1 cam.

I dont think you will be able to pass the sniffer with the lt1 intake since you cant hookup an egr with it

With good tuning you shouldnt have any problem passing.
