Yeah, I don't see how just a cam could give you 100 horses. I'd read the fine print if I were you. Chances are, that was in conjunction with a head/exhaust/intake package.
If by some miracle it DOES bump you up another 100 horsepower, it certainly wouldn't be very streetable.
Lingenfelter GT11 camshaft will produce excellent power and still have a streetable idle for automatic or six speed manual transmission equipped vehicles. Tests have shown 500 HP in the new LS2 6.0L engine with stock manifolds and catalysts.
Suggested in 350-427 CID applications
Camshaft specifications: 215/231 duration @ .050 .631/.644 with 1.7 ratio rocker arms 118.0 CL. This camshaft will require dual valve spring kit 26921-KIT. Camshafts ground by Competition Cams for Lingenfelter.
That certainly sounds like a very streetable cam according to the specs. I'd love to see a dyno from someone who installed that only. I doubt that calm of a cam can produce an additional 100 horsepower. Of course I've been wrong before...like once...in 1985...
hehe
Notice it says stock manifolds and cats, dont say stock HEADS. I think that they installed that cam with heads and through some lean tuning, managed 100hp gain.
I am unsure, I think I will call Lingenfelter on Monday to find out, In the past Lingenfelter has been found to be very accurate and reliable in their claims. we will see if it holds true.
