PM me & will discuss the cam details..

Our cam is a torquer speced cam & we stick with stock heads.. Their is alot of opinions on engine/cam combos work the best.. We have found that 600 hp is where we like to be for our cars & it does not take much to get their..

let me clarify the GM dropping valves.. We ring our motors pretty steady to 7000 rpm.. & when you are racing the LS7 it is better to upgrade the exhaust valves on a side of procaution plus the tune will be key when you are running them hard.. I have two core LS7 that I have bought from GM pull outs with a cracked cylinder & broken piston.. Motors leaned out somewhere.. The third one was with upgraded valves & broke a valve on the exhaust..

The LS7 motor is my favorite of them all but expensive.. It is hard to buy one from GM & then throw more $$$ @ it so that you can prolong the life of it on the track.. Currently we looking @ different method of how we will get our LS7 track motors built..

I have same setup in my car and would be intrested of just cam and tune. Many cams ( like torquer ) require head work what i dont plan to do in near future.

As for dropping valves.. Is that really a risk? If so i really believe GM would done something to fix it.
