I can spec you something custom if that's what you really want.

Re: nastyist sounding cam in a lt1?
well i wish you could get that sound without making it unusable for most. Im slowly learning what i really want in a cam. But i thought it would be fun to know what cams out there are just killer sounding

Re: nastyist sounding cam in a lt1?
The nasty sounding cams are hell to live with in a daily driver. COMP's Thumpr cams are good for a nasty sound but still decent torque and driveability, but even the smallest belongs in a 383 stroker, and even then will be difficult to tune your EFI for. It'll give incredible upper-midrange. It'd be a good match for LT4-style heads and Edelbrock's LT4 Air Gap intake. Start with 4.10:1 rear gears.

Re: nastyist sounding cam in a lt1?
well to put you in the loop, im trying to build a lt1 383 road race motor. Ill be using 208 cc ported lt1 heads and ported intake: i dont know what cam yet. I want a nice flat curve for power out of turns. But im asking about cam sound
just to see my options, do they make a hydro roller thumper cam?

They do, but not listed as LT1 (probably because of the dowel pin). http://www.summitracing.com/search/M...ord=thumpr+cam

There were several listed, including retrofit. The non-retrofit ones had 2200-5900 RPM powerbands claimed.

Both can spec you a cam that will match what you needs.

Re: nastyist sounding cam in a lt1?
Elliott is making a pretty good name for himself in the LTx world. If you ask him for a nasty cam, I'd bet he could also help you get a well-matched tune. COMP can't offer anything like that.

Re: nastyist sounding cam in a lt1?
they just seemed stuck on the thumpr cams, elliott would probably be a much better go to guy for this, he could match a cam to the motor better than just grabbing and off the shelf.
