Tariq,
Congrats on the mod! Do you feel the difference right from off-of-the-start or later in the RPM range? I will probably do what you did, in a year or so. I might go with cam that builds more torque quicker due to the weight of our cars.
Way to jump into a major modification, it takes dedication!

Thanks :)

You can feel the different right after 4000 RPM in 6000 RPM you will love the car and the sound
But in low RPM you can say it's heavy car ,, I would recommend the GT-12 camshaft
Great shelf cam, the power also good , no need for a stall and have nice idle sound.
In winter I'm going to change the LS7 cam to GT-12 :mrgreen:

Hi Dave
Car was tuned here in my Country by one of My friend with EFI-Live
(Engine+Trans)
I changed my Diff from 2.92 non LSD to the same ratio 2.92 but LSD, all other parts are Stock
couldn't find a 3.27 LSD in good price!

Planing now to get a decent camshaft (upgrade) from Rick Crawford Or Pat.G 8-)
