You don't have to take the heads off for a cam. You do have to take the radiator and steering rack out



http://www.ls1howto.com/



If your're after big HP over stock, a simple cam swap isnt going to do it. The stock LS6 cam is pretty aggressive as it is. You might make an additional 40rwhp with a seriously aggressive cam. Now if you throw in AFR heads, ported throttle body, and an agressive cam, you might get somewhere.





Or you could just put a procharger on it and make 550rwhp without even taking the valve covers off

Thats awsome. I don't like the new corrvetts very much. The ones that looke like Ferraris in the front. Do the correvttes come with EMT's? The ones that don't go flat, you can ride on for like 100miles before having to get a new tire. I don't think you can patch them? Are they stock tires?

the good year run flats are on the standard vettes. On the z06 the put goodyear f1 supercars on. These do go flat and there is no spare. Gm gives you some fix a flat and a mini air compressor and wishes you the best of luck..lol
