LT1 Cam Specs
This ones for drvngstorm... he knows what i'm talking about... here are the specs off the cam i have in my 305...
GM Stock Cams
Model Number .05" Duration 1.5:1 Lift 1.6:1 Lift Lobe Sep. Notes
14093643 202/207 .404/.415 .431/.443 114.5 87 350,305man
10088155 179/194 .350/.384 .373/.410 109deg 87 305 auto
10066049 207/213 .415/.430 .443/.459 117deg 88-89 350,305
10111773 202/207 .413/.428 .441/.457 114.5 90-92 350,305
The underlined one is the cam i have, the worst of the worst. I believe the call it the "peanut cam" i guess because it's so small. I was wondering what these specs would be for an LT1 cam, which i'm getting later on this week. The cam change would net me some decent hp increase, i read and article some where, stating the this is the weak point of the 305, i guess along with the heads.

Re: LT1 Cam Specs
Yeah I have heard good things about the swap. I dont know what the increase would be...maybe 30 hp. But for the stock heads I think it is supposed to max out or come close to the limits of the stock heads. I was gonna do it too. A buddy of mine was gonna give me his original cam for 20 bucks. Ive heard that its the lt1 camaro cam from 94. But i dont know if they differed from year to year. Decent swap if your keeping the stock heads.

Yeah, stock heads for now, i can't afford to get some new heads along with everything else right now. I was thinking the cam and rockers would do some justice.

Re: LT1 Cam Specs
Too bad a stock LS1 cam wouldn't fit.

he he.
A 90 degree Satruday afternoon, a torch, die grinder and a 30 pack a beer, and it'll fit.
Might not be all that functional, but she'll fit

Re: LT1 Cam Specs
Here is the specs on all LT1 cams, they changed over the years and I happen to have 2 - 93 - 95 specs incase anyone is in need.
Edit- Also these are all with 1.5 rockers except the LT4 specs.

Re: LT1 Cam Specs
I posted , incase anyone is in need not making a thread listing my items. There is a difference and I never removed someone's post for respoding to someone looking for the item but I guess you make a valid point and I won't do it again til we have the classified's up.

Re: LT1 Cam Specs
Unfortantly we were without a Admin for a long time now due to them being busy as hell with school and Igor with the skyline and racing. So Igor just appointed a third active admin to start taking care of things but unfortantly after 6 months of backed up requests, our subforums aren't a priority.

WOW!! The lift on that thing is superior to mine. That will do some justice then. As for springs, are there any particular ones i should get, my stock ones are most likely tired out by now (81,000 miles), and it wouldn't hurt to change them since i'll be in there anyways.

Re: LT1 Cam Specs
Well, Roller rockers would be a good way to go, Proform makes some decent priced one's for 87 and later TPI's. Also if you want to get a little more lift out of the LT1 cam for a few more pony's you can use some 1.6 versus the stock 1.5 ones.
