I’d be pulling this vid down before people who build engines tear it apart in the comments You give engine builders a bad name with disinformation The gains on E85 lol Nah boys lol All vehicles in this vid ARE NOT making the claimed rwhp with chosen cam profiles Your big cam 500rwhp with heads lol No hope in hell For 1 That profile will have next to no p/v clearance Then you say the heads are skimmer to bring up comp lol There’s no p/v to start with lol I commented on your reply to old mate regarding underdrive balancers Please explain why people should not use them And let’s talk about dyno manipulation Why are the cars strapped down differently between the before and after dyno runs We both know how that changes results Just like playing with the correction factor That tuner needs to stay off camera and not speak And the bullshit with xforce headers not fitting correctly Why not tell your audience the truth Std leads will not fit 1 7/8” headers of any brand So many comments in this video that are just bullshit I KNOW what it takes to make 500+rwhp n/a LS That’s ls3 std bore/stroke and std compression No cutting pistons No skimming heads to bump compression The RIGHT cam profile And the right cnc heads

That cam has no p/v? Are you thick? Do you think we havent checked this with multiple cam profiles with different head deck thicknesses? Go watch some other videos fly cutting for slightly bigger cams. This cam profile has 0 ptv issues with any amount any sane person would want to take off heads. Gains on E are minimal as these combos arent knock limited on ULP. Thats just basic fluid mechanics. All vehicles are making claimed numbers, all dynoed in shootout with correction factors set, and all strapped exactly the same between before and after runs, not sure what youre smoking.. I would love to see you “pick this apart” while actually backing up anything you have to say. No comments on this vid are “bs” and we can back up everything we talk about. This is the only car we have ever had issues with leads fitting, and its because of the header flange, nothing to do with 1-7/8 headers.. You certainly are a silly salmon.

It fascinates me how people like you can come to the comments of a video like this and proclaim you know what the ptv is of the combo, to the people who are actually doing the work, in the same comment claiming WE give engine builders a bad name with “disinformation” 🤣. I could tell you exactly what ptv this cam will give at any head deck thickness, from 20 btdc to 20 atdc. Same with the 1288 and 1289 grinds. Im sure you “KNOW” what it takes to make 500whp n/a sbe LS, you just watched a whole video on how to do it… You sure like making yourself look like an ass.

Awesome vid! What’s the ballpark figure for drive in drive out, engine out, cam, heads, otr and exhaust?

goes to show how cam selection is a bit of an art, not just a case of "bigger is better". Would be interested to know the logic behind what makes you pick a cam for a cathedral port vs a rectangle. The extent of my knowledge is basically 'rectangle is better' so would be cool to see a video on what the differences are and whats good for each.

@BoostGumps

Жыл бұрын

Its mostly just matching the valve events to the much better port flow on the intake of the rectangles. I can probably do a little vid on it sometime soon! But thats why we generally go for a much bigger split on rectangles and almost even split on cathedrals.

I put HSV headers on my WM Statesman L98 2007 model and the midrange pull it picked up with those headers stock everything else was fantastic. Had OTR and a tune and it went very well.. Are you sure that ute doesn't have a cat back? Tailpipes don't look stock and it doesn't sound stock..Great result, awesome work lads.

AWESOME results with the 1286 cam. Have you tried this cam with a supercharged 6.0 or 6.2 LS ? Thanks

What part number for the pwr oil cooler for the transmission do you guys use? Or do you sell them

ive had those headers, they're hsv headers.

Would that 1286 also be good for a sbe ls3 with stock converter and diff gears?

Have you ever camed a el falcon 4.L and if you have can you show a video on how to do it properly it would be helpful because I want to cam my el xr6 and I’d like to know how to go about it

Hey mate, do you have the part # for that trans auto cooler? Cheers great in-depth video

Hey guy’s probably a bad video to comment and ask but I was just wondering if you’s see a noticeable loss in torque in a ls1 with a tunnel ram setup over say a stock manifold with an otr? I really want to go tunnel ram for the looks but don’t want to if it will loose to much mid range

Do you guy's do any work on L67 3800, cars??

Sorry for the late comment. Buy would you guys make a short video on the trans cooler that you install? That would be sweet to see the install! Or point me to the video that you install one please.

Would you recommend this cam and head combo in a patrol with a l77 and 6l80? Thanks in advance 👍

What is the estimated cost to do an upgrade like this the first car vf ute

Can you tell me the part number for the oil cooler please

How did the vf ute go with cam surge and the stock converter? Any issues with cam shake?

@wesleyorr2905

It’s mine mate little bit more surge particularly when it’s cold but it doesn’t bother me. Definitely shakes more at idle but perfect street cam I think

What compression ratio on last VF Manual car guys.

Does the cam retainer have to be chamfered with every timing chain with torrington bearing? My rollmaster dual row didn't come with any installation information.

so for std port heads with the 1287 with supporting mods in an auto with diff gears and big wheels 430-440whp would be about right. Also depends on the dyno though

Its the same as diff gears. Your HP readout goes lower but torque readout goes higher. Actual hp doesn't get affected. The "butt dyno" and real world will prove a massive increase in performance with a correctly suited bigger stall or diff gear ratio to suit. Dyno is a tuning tool, not a be all and all.

@BoostGumps

@@RhysK94 yep Diff gears is a funny one because theoretically the difference in readout should be minimal, but it actually does make quite a big difference. All these cars read on the very happy side due to them still being std gearing. If we put 3.7’s in them all power readings would drop significantly

We haven’t no, though I’m sure they would be happy to take our feedback. This being said we have previously used this exact headers set on a VE and not had the same issue, perhaps just a batch issue with these flanges or something.
