The LT4 is a very decent cam, I suppose with an LT1 intake is should be more of a perfect match than a Super Ram like my combination. Though of course it would be nice to get an LT4 intake If you think of getting a Super Ram I would check out the LPE cam

Take this with a grain of salt, but every Desktop Dyno simulation I've done shows the LT4 HOT cam makes more power across the board versus the LPE219 cam. The HOT cam is also cheaper. Your results may vary.

I would not have a doubt in my Mind that Kevin Knows the lt4hot cam is making more power vs the Lpe219.. Gm put a lot of time and money into the spec of the Lt4hot cam.. I agree on results may vary as, Is there a factor of where it's ground at that could be the possible difference..?

Re: Good Cams

Nobody does research here, they just trade cams between themselves.

Re: Good Cams

Well what else is new. Not much new right?

Now the point is which cam is best for the legal combo.

And I guess the vs area of noise is the Ex. factor is a down side? Less Rumble! But it's need.
In my guess with my combo and refrence to the Dyno result is the zz4 cam vortec combo produced the tq. But was in majorly needing the Hp.
