Vindicator Cam Question

**98Deathproof** · 03-22-2009, 10:40 AM

Ok at present my car is putting down 429 rwhp/431 ft/lb Torque. My Setup at present is an LS6 383 Stroker, Patriot Stage II Ported/Polished Heads, Comp Cam ( not sure on the number but its very conservative for the motor), LS6 Intake , SLP Lid w/ Free ram air mod, MAC Mid headers. I am going to put a Vengeance Vindicator Cam in soon, can anyone give me a ballpark estimate on the numbers I could expect after this swap?

240/244 .605/.596 112 LSA. 2400-7000

if these are the specs of that cam, you should be making around 450 wheel easily with that cam and the rest of your setup. if you dont know your current cam specs, at what rpm does it currently run out of breath?

You won't pick up much, and depending upon the cam that you currently have, you may trade a lot of power for just a few peak HP more. That Vindicator cam will want every bit of 6700-6800rpm in a 383, and the LS6 will not be up to the task of feeding it.
