Default Re: General LT-1 Information

Good going Marlin! Is Day-2 beginning to rub off on Ya? It is a shame that we can't find very early NOS LT1 cams, because they really worked. The GM LT1 short block we installed in 1972 in my 69 nova was a killer. When that cam hit around 2600 rpm's it snapped to 7000 rpm like you had nitros. Chevy does not grind the cams like that any more it seems. Marlin, Those original LT1's and 1970 Yenko's beat many a big block cars. I was there first hand! Horse Power per cubic inch...Nothing [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/no.gif[/img] out performs a SMALL block chevy!! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif[/img] Sam
