Gt1 is the best N/A street cam. It gains you like 20HP. requirements on the cam are on ZZP's website- just can't remember if you need 105# springs, but it's most likely recommended

x2. Look into ZZP's ER Rockers, which are designed for N/A applications. Way easier to install than a cam and if you're staying N/A there's really no sense in getting a cam unless you are going big and doing a nasty build, which I'm assuming you're not doing.

all depends on the year, before 04 i would do a cam, cause top swaps are cheap for those, 04+ just get rockers for now, cause our top swap cost a bit more :s lol

EDIT:only reason i say the above is yea for now you don't want that much power you'll be happy with that little increase, then one day you'll wake up screaming "MOAR POWA" and it's easier to upgrade to a swap top cause the cams compatiable, i believe i read somewhere that certain rockers don't play well with top swaps

06+ gt's were supercharged though. The GT1 cam would work, but i would get a cam meant for an l32 as it will give you more hp.

You could go with a Gen III if you wanna be cheap, but it just wont be as efficient as the Gen V

The price it cost to get a GenIII and make it work on a series III motor just isn't worth it IMHO TB adapter plate, Series III LIM, less gains. Do it right the first time and get the GenV if you intend on top swapping.

I'm trying to remember ... I think it was Crower that was offering reground stock cams with .460" lift at the valve.
That would be a nice way to go.
You guys ever hear of anybody trying one?

If you are going to go as far as changing the camshaft, you might as well put an L32 top end on when you put it back together.
