the 503 definitely sounds streetable. that’s what I would pick the other one might make more power but obviously you’ll need to be in higher rpms to make it. ---

Ok new update not camming the original motor. i’m yanking it and rebuilding it. I plan to run a full forged 383 at 11 to 1 compression. I have new AFR 195cc elminator heads, should flow 280cfm+ at .550-.600 lift this is gonna take me awhile to do 🙂 but when its done it will rip ass. Plan to run a custom grind cam of some sort. thinking LE3 from BRE custom cams/Lloyd Eliot. we will see tho ![http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/AFRhead1.JPG](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/AFRhead1.JPG) ![http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/AFRheadports.JPG](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/AFRheadports.JPG) hoping for near 400whp n/a ---

it should be nasssty when done. i hope to spray it too… only a 150shot but depends on how my funds are, i may direct port 200 to it. i dont have a cage or roll bar, or 12 bolt rear, so it will all have to wait. i want 11’s n/a and 10’s on motor or CLOSE to it. ---

Yeah i didnt want to do it this way, i just wanted a budget build with alittle more power than what i have now. But i’ve been convinced to build it right now, get the power i wanted this year instead of next year. So i’m done messing around, i want this car pretty nasty. it will be awhile, but when its done i’ll give u a ride. it should be fun nonetheless. ---

looking into a custom grind cam for the application. Should be interesting to see what happens with that. I hope it is nasty lol, it should be with all this research i’ve been putting into this project. Now i just need the money to finish it all… ---

Well i got the cam finally and its not as ‘nasty’ as i was hoping for but should fit the bill nicely. Cam was designed by Bret Bauer…from Bauer racing engines it actually came out similar to the CC306…surprisingly enough but with a ton more lift and slightly different lobes Advertised duration is 286/306 230/245 at .050" with .603/.613" of lift with 1.6 rockers. 109 LSA Not very aggressive profiled lobes but with very high lift to complement the AFR heads I was hoping for more intake duration and less exhaust split since i had AFR heads which have good exhaust/intake flow ratio. Also steeper profiled lobes, but he says this is what will be best for my stealth ram and AFR heads on the 383. I hope he’s right 🙂 It will also love nitrous which i do plan to run so thats good. it has a good deal of overlap so it will idle rough but i dont mind. Its what i wanted 🙂 Cant wait to get the motor build itself started up. I just need headers and few other small things, and the shortblock to get this thing started up. ---

nice. can’t believe he gave you specs… he usually doesn’t give specs until a cam is actually sold, and then he asks the customer not to advertise. are you still getting the afr’s ported by lloyd? ---

no i’m using the AFR’s as is. i got the heads here. He didnt give me the specs, lol the cam came today and i got the cam card. he wouldnt tell me anything before hand tho, only after it was shipped and i got the card. he also never said anything about postin specs. lol i posted it everywhere 🙂 i did talk to him abit more and he says this will be the cam for my setup. I personally feel its alittle small, but we will see. It will LOVE nitrous he says so thats a plus. I hope to run a 150-200 shot [Previous page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/orr89roczs-1989-camaro-iroc-z-5-7l/188547.md?page=7) [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/orr89roczs-1989-camaro-iroc-z-5-7l/188547.md?page=9)
