I am interested in a cam upgrade on my 3400 cavalier, something aggresive but I don't want to cut pistons, any one know of an inexpencive cam/spring set up

define "inexpensive"

i dont know if i would trust this guy, but i think he's one of only a few that sells them:
I think all this 'aggressive cam' phase is being caused by 3400-95-modified haha

Well.. since i currently have the record for N/A WHP in a V6 Jbody i'll say that you are going to need a lot more than a cam and headers to beat me. You will have to spray it to get 300 WHP.Originally posted by highmiler View Post
I'm at 275 WHP with a huge cam in a 3500, longtube headers, ported top end, 75mm TB, true duals and a 3.5" CAI and lots of tuning. That is with a 5 speed.Comment

its a 1996 cavalier 2.2 car with ....I think a Isuzu trans??? I swapped in a 3400 out of a 2001 grand am gt self tunned with a Megasquirt, then a Eaton M62 Off of a Bonneville that I ported, and im running a vortec 5.7 throttle body.
I normally run at rockfalls, WI with my lt1 camaro(11.56 on a 80hp dry shot) but I have not ran this car yet. man huge props on the numbers on the rollers! that is numbers the 5.0 guys dream of lolComment

Sweet! (and Thanks)Originally posted by highmiler View Post
Not unless you want to see a straight piped, cammed 327 barely start... throw black smoke when you rev it up and not move because the trans is dead.Originally posted by bob442 View Post
I have yet to start on it, it won't be too long before it's on the road though.

superdave, who did you have your cam made by if you don't mind me asking?
if you ever want anything tig welded or powdercoated, or a cage bent up, I have all kinds of tools for fun stuff .....FYIComment

I got mine before WOT-Tech really started with theirs. I bought a stock solid core from Ben (wot) and had it custom ground at Delta camshaft.
These days just getting a new roller from Ben is a much better deal, i'm considering getting a new one myself down the road.Comment
