Smile ABOUT TO ORDER CAM KIT/DOD

I am about to order a cam kit for the ZL what kit do you guys suggest? I am looking at BTR stage 2 38% fuel lobe and also Ted J cam setup. Thoughts?

Buddy, most here will first ask what you're trying to achieve with a new cam.

My car should be out of the shop early next week with Ted's 2650/Terminator Cam kit. I believe you will be told that the little blower will not support the cam. Give Ted a call at Jannetty Racing and ask him. To give you a little idea of his straight forwardness, I've already spent a ton of money with him and I called him yesterday to spend more and you know what he told me? "Stop it, you are more than fine where you are". Call him.

Can you or Ted give some specifics on the stock blower not supporting a cam. Curious if that also includes a Kong X ported blower.

Ted has a video up of his 125 flex package with his cam and a 10% lower on E50 making 704 RWHP. Look on his Facebook page. Not a bad setup! I am thinking about going that way. Then you just add the 2650 and on 93 he is making around 805-830 RWHP

Based on your sig, your car is stock?

I know this is an older post. But, I called Ted and glad I did. I was trying to piece-mill things together based on my own researched and this I've read up on. But, the process I've learned, is truly like a puzzle. It doesn't matter what pieces you have, its how well the fit (work) together! Ted's suggested solution for the 125 Kit and the Terminator kits sound solid!

And yet, the the quickest OEM blower ZL1 just ran a 8.4@160mph.

I'm happy with my X ported blower.

A cam kit was my first mod, so I like the idea particularly if, like me, you think you are likely to add more power in the future as I did. I would work with a LT4 cam designer like a Cam Motion, Comp, LPE, KaTech or others.
