1964 Chevy ll ls1/t56 swap
i would look into a Torquer V2 cam. The cam checks out on all points. It sounds good, puts power down on the dyno, hard to beat at the track and it has torque everywhere. We just did a ls1 car that put down on 450 rwhp with this camshaft with hand ported 243 heads.- Z28 Guy

What head, cam and intake you plan on doing on the ls1 ? My 2000 Z28 6 speed car puts down right at 500 rwhp on a very stingy 48 inch drum dyno. Thats on a factory 799 head caating on top of a LS2 bottom end with a cam motion camshaft. My goals is 10s all motor.- Z28 Guy
