05 LS2 GTO With Custom Grind Comp Cam

[Th3CODGam3r]

Lol

[Th3CODGam3r]

Hi dad :)

[Chap84]

That is a great sound, how are the driving charecteristics? I am thinking about getting that grind.

[CAMSGTO]

@Chap84 Thx. It's easy to use as a DD. Only takes a few tries to understand the low end dynamics of the cam when you're trying to drive in normal situations. It will "buck" on you if you're not careful, but it's not too sensitive. The cam has TQ throughout the power band .

[Cowboymonte]

when you custom grind a cam can you tell them the lift and and duration and RPM range? because I'd like more lift but still wanna stay at a lower RPM

like .512/.520 226/232 1500-5400 rpms

350ci

[Cowboymonte]

hey when you custom grind a cam can you also tell them the rpm range you want?

and that actually be the rpm range?

[FATBOYREPPIN502]

i bet this badboy sounds good as hell when its opened up on the highway!

[xrelapse13]

Nice car, what kind of numbers you make?

[CAMSGTO]

@xrelapse13 Thanks. 440 RWHP / 402 RWTQ.

[xrelapse13]

nice numbers, is that through the stock ls2 ijntake and tb?

[2004americanmuscle]

sounds amazing!!!!!

[DonBuralli]

How do you go about ordering a custom grind cam? Thanks.

[nighawaaaxx]

ask them to custom grind one lol..

work on your intake and exaust, and fuel delivery first than think about changing your heart of your motor

[DonBuralli]

Im getting a Fast LSX intake manifold, longtubes, exhaust and CAI. And how much extra is it if you have them custom make one?

[DonBuralli]

did you have this cam custom made? i can not find this cam anywhere. thanks

[CAMSGTO]

Yes, It's a custom grind.

[DonBuralli]

also, if you dont mind me asking. about how much did it cost you to get the custom one made? Thanks again.

[danieldurbin1951]

If you don't mind me asking what are the specs on that cam. I have ported stock heads, comp cam, (232/232 @.050 595/595 114 LSA)kooks 1 7/8 LT's w/ catted mids corsa sport catback, and i put down 437rwhp and 395rwtq.

[CAMSGTO]

234/236 .598/.602 112 LSA. My stock heads are untouched. Those are great numbers on that setup you have.

[danieldurbin1951]

Those numbers that you put down are great too. What does your HP and TQ curve look like. If you want to see mine type in Daniel's 05 GTO on the dyno. It shows the dyno graph at the end.

[turn74]

HOLY MOLY- 234/236??? Nice car!!

[IrishChris1979]

Wow, with a 112 LSA I thought it would be more lopey than that. This one sounds perfect. This is as aggressive as I would ever wan't in a cam. It still sounds like a deep V8 at idle unlike those tin popping super lopey cams I don't like...They all sound great though once the rpm's are up. Thanks for the vid :)

[danieldurbin1951]

Those numbers that you put down are great too. What does your HP and TQ curve look like. If you want to see mine type the following in the search block. Daniel's 2005 Head/Cam GTO on the Dyno. It shows the dyno graph at the end.

[eatinguy]

What's a cam? Does my LS2 have one of those? =-Þ

Very stealthy idle...115LSA? Or is it just the way the camera mic is picking up the sound? -stang2goat on ls2gtoforums

[BA7500]

A cam is a Camshaft. Yes your engine does have it, in fact all do. If I remeber correctly your engine is a 6.0litre v8 Pushrod engine. The Camshft works by opening and closing the intake and exhasut valves. In your engine it is near centre of the motor. It is spun via the Crankshaft, the camshaft is a long straight piece of metal with lobes on it. When spun these lobes push a rod that then opens and closes the valves. there are different camshafts for different applications. I.E Drag racing.

[eatinguy]

Oh dear you took me literally...the smiley was to denote I was playing. My comment on your lobe separation angle was supposed to dispell any doubts!

Thanks anyway though. -S2G

[CAMSGTO]

BA7500 missed the tongue-in-cheek, but that's a great little reply and a great explanation! It would have taken me a while to craft a response like that in so few words. But I'm from Texas and we ain't too smart around these parts......

[redrider20110]

what is lobe separation angle... call me stupid

[theromanone]

thanks man, this helped me a bunch

[blaszilla]

NICE! you and I have a similar setup and our numbers are about the same. Your idle is a lot more tame than mine... Check my profile if you get a chance to see what I mean.

[CAMSGTO]

Thanks much. From what I understand the LS3 is going to be rated at about 435 HP at the crank. My 435 RWHP is about 515 at the crank, but the GTO is a heavy pig compared to the 'vettes and new Camaro. Once the LS3's started getting modded, it's a whole new story.

[IRONBULL777]

Looks like you've gotta enuff to run with the new LS3's. Good numbers, nice ride.

[CAMSGTO]

ahhh...Gotcha, never heard it called that before!

[CAMSGTO]

Yep M6. Just had an LS7 clutch, 160 T-Stat and Pedders Serious Street kit installed a couple of weeks ago. Can't even begin the describe the improvement the Pedders make.

[Docthewrench]

sorry even though I am a true gear head what are pedders? I assume headers?

[CAMSGTO]

Sorry- Pedders is a brand of aftermarket suspension components that specialize in Australian cars. The GTO was very undersprung from the factory. Car does have headers as well.

[Docthewrench]

thanks  wow so rare NOT to get a smart ass answer on it I need to go outside and sniff some turbo blue in my nova

thanks for a HUMAN type answer it was refreshing

[CAMSGTO]

No worries man. Anybody can be an ASS when hiding behind the internet. I'm glad you watched the clip and asked a question. Got a question for you now? What does "sniff some turbo blue" mean? Sorry if THAT's a dumb question.....

[Docthewrench]

Turbo blue is racing gas here ya know that real sweat smelling stuff low grade gas stinks good gas smell very sweat. So sniff some racing gas is a good thing lol

[bbraun01]

Nice, nice. I'm assuming its an M6? I'm driving an auto so I'd be a tad below you on those numbers. Getting the car re-dyno'd and retuned this weekend hopefully, expecting at least 40 from the longtubes.

[CAMSGTO]

Thanks, the LT's and LM exhaust wake the deat at WOT with the cam. It's putting down 395 RWHP / 360 RWTQ on a Mustang Dyno, 435 RWHP / 396 RWTQ on a Dynojet.

[SkAtEOrDie67]

why different numbers on different kinds of dyno's? nice goat by the way.

[bbraun01]

Nice!

You have the same exhaust setup as me, what kind of numbers are you making with that cam?

[J90lude]

Beautiful

[zadjaliz]

more shit

[snowmobileracer69]

Give it some gas!
