Lloyd Elliot, the owner of Elliot Port Works is the LT1 cylinder head porter of choice for all of us LT1 guys. TPIS is good too but Lloyd has been the go-to for quite some time. His LE2 package with a cam spec's by him is VERY popular.

If you’re sticking with stock castings why not go with lloyd Elliott? He’s been the go to for lt1 guys for many years now. Check the lt1 forums. Nobody ever talks about tpis heads or even cam for that matter. LE2 (LE stands for lloyd Elliott) heads and one of his custom grinds is a proven 490+ hp combo. That’s what just about all us lt1 guys are running so why go with anything else for this test? You’re just going to annoy the lt1 crowd by making the engine look bad because you’re using sub par parts. Btw, the tpis zz409 cam is TINY compared to what most lt1 guys are running. It’s a 226/226. Pretty much all lt1 guys are running 230+/238+. My LE2 cam is 231/238 and I wish I went bigger. 355 ci btw.

Appreciate the LT1 getting some love! but I think this was the parts combination. LT1s are a little more sensitive to what works and what doesn't than other platforms. My 95 Z28 dyno'd 373 at the tires with a 226/234 cam and milled stock heads. dyno video is on my channel. It's a really fun engine, been thrashing it since i put it together in 2008 with no issues!

I agree to a point they are just an SBC, but in my experience the reverse cooling gives them a better tolerance to compression and timing vs a comparable aluminum-headed gen 1. Why i think you are correct that they were the best SBC!

That thing is way down on power. The following numbers are on my LT1 on engine dyno, but with all accessories and full custom exhaust (free flowing mufflers) - But fine tuned PCM by me: 1. Stock LT1 but with cam 218/218 112LSA, stock heads - 338hp @ 5440rpm and a lot of valve float . 2. My own crappy home ported heads, upgraded dual springs and Lunati 219/227 112LSA - 418hp @ 6051rpm. A year after that, the engine ate piston 7 and 8 ringlands in a run turning the timing way up. Excuse to upgrade to a Golen 383 fully forged bottom end :-) 3. XFI 280 cam (230/236 113LSA), 58mm TB - 446hp @ 6206rpm. 4. XFI 280 cam (230/236 113LSA), 58mm TB, but now with LE2 heads - 506hp @ 6631rpm (still going up but release throttle, didn't feel like spinning it higher) 5. TrickFlow 230/234 110LSA (almost same as XFI cam, but tighter LSA. Wanted to narrow the powerband a little and use more power) - 525hp @ 6102rpm. Lost about avg 10hp below 4500rpm and a little more torque. 6. Swapped out the 58mm TB to the stock 48mm with airfoil, because I didn't like the aggressive on/off feeling with it. HP went down to 518hp @ 6100rpm. and only lost 5ft/lb of torqe. I actually thought I would loose way more, but the stock TB is actually pretty good with that airfoil when you approach 500hp.

I ve seen Hotcam combination make more than that Id bet the exhaust ports were not done on short turn and in ports to flow much better than stock. If the exhaust ports are over efficient to cause soggy bottom end or on circle track cars mushy out of the turns sometimes a single pattern cam is suggested to provide better torque and throttle response. Crane cams always added more exhaust duration to chevy grinds even designed LS cams 210 227 Z6 cams to pull low and mid range with exhaust duration for top end. If porting LT1 heads flow 212cfm intake and 162cfm exhaust GOTO ported say 249cfm intake 180cfm exhaust 27cfm intake 2.2cfm per HP+ 13HP 18cfm exhaust 9HP good LT1 heads make so the heads unless exceptional are worth say 20HP exhaust valves 1.5" stock but not alot of room to go 1.55 or 1.6 valve and pocket venturi to match so the exhaust port has to be done right or split pattern cam. Just as a test try some 1.6 rocker arms on the exhaust and see if it goes to say 410HP. Then change heads and or cam.

@alonzahanks1182 5 ай бұрын

Thats actually really good for just a cam that just made 450 460 lift. Stock steel rockers wont let cam show off its lift At 1.324 instead 1.5 is spec but gm jews you on that its cause the old cams were cast so 450 460 is like 390 400 cam 1.5 crane gold or 1.62 scorpians will get advertised lift with stock cam 1.5 cranes get 510 520 almost hot cam size id call the heads stock looked in video that the ruffed up intake runners and didnt port match and it was going up walls like they copied a vortec with tiny runners probably slower than stock thats why you expected more 450- 480 horse with Cam and rockers easy

I love that you're testing on my favorite engine. I agree that the numbers both on the intake comparison and here seem unusual, but keep doing more videos with it and we'll get to the bottom of that I'm sure. Do we know it's mileage, compression, etc? I would have like to see that cam with stock heads, or a fuel injected version of the carb style intake, to narrow down what might be giving you the unexpected results.

I’m kinda glad to see this even though it’s an unusual combination in the LT1 world as most people have said. I have Lloyd Elliot’s LE1 heads which are very similar in flow to the TPIS heads. With new valves and porting (I had the springs, retainers, keepers and set them up myself) I still came in well under $1000. My cam is a Howards cam very similar in spec to the ZZ409 cam, single pattern, very close duration, very close lift, 2* narrower LSA. I built it to build mid range torque and power, not top end drag racing power. So it lets me see a result that I might expect to make. What’s the compression on this machine?

Hi torque, even with a good larger camshaft is often an indication of really great airspeed on head porting. I’d say it’s factor of both port volume and the way the port work was done. Also you can’t make a high rpm climbing ignition curve cause you used a distributor so it may not be viable in this scenario. Sone engines just want more timing up top.

@bobnankervis9722 5 ай бұрын

@@richardholdener1727 Yes, stock 95 LT1 heads. These heads flow much better that the original 1960's 302 heads and thus do not require as much of a camshaft to make excellent street power. My 74 Vega in 75 ran the stock 'DZ' heads with the GM '140' service cam. Fastest 1/4 mile times required shifting the Muncie at 8500 rpm. Car was slower when shifting at 9k. So don't overcam this engine unless you plan to really spin it and give up low rpm torque! Also you need the higher compression with the shorter stroke to retain decent low rpm torque for the street. P.S. I ran the stock LT1 intake, fuel injection and optispark. Also to run hyd rollers you need to keep the rpms down and use a very mild lift camshaft to keep from launching the lifters off off the lobes. Mild lift with 1.6 rockers fits the bill. Stock heads stop flowing at about .460 lift anyway. Hope that helps

Still But now goes through all band harder and more violent with what your doing id go 58mm tb and youl get bigger ponies

the throttle body is not the reason why the motor makes more torque than HP-that is the combination of mild cam and stock heads

My 383 lt1 has tea ported 200 cc trickflow heads and 12 to 1 compression 248/258 .576/.576 114+4 . The cam in the motor on dyno is to small as seen with more tq than hp

Advanced induction put out some great heads and cam combos. I owned one. Still have the heads sitting on a shelf. But I’ll say this… The LT4 195cc Airflow Research Heads I currently have are excellent and maybe even better than the AI 200cc heads.

Are you positive you didn’t send the 4.3 heads to the porter? I know you sold the good heads you had previously for the lt1 ?

I think your engine is the 260 hp Road master version and not the 300 hp corvette mill. that could explain the missing power .

LT1 guys: cam too mild, heads too mild! Me: how wild do you really have to get to make more HP than a junkyard 5.3 with nothing more than LS2 cam/springs??

@mrmister7526 5 ай бұрын

Theres something wrong with this motor. And you're comparing apples to oranges. I'm running a procharged lt1 and a LQ4 stroker. I love them both.

@sstevocamaro 5 ай бұрын

The 5.3 doesn’t respond well to aftermarket cylinder heads and you can only cam it so much. The cubic inches just aren’t there with a 5.3. Now take the LT1 and mod it properly and it’ll walk away from a 5.3 all day and twice on Sunday. You can go with an NA 5.3 if you want, but in the real world you know it doesn’t hold its own against bigger engines unless boosted.

See this is a common problem with lt1 builds people pick the wrong parts and the wrong porter and make less power than a cammed stock engine makes. Properly cammed and tuned lt1s can make near what this engine made to the crank at the tires.

Why even use such a tiny cam? 20 years ago i ran a gm847, comp pro mags, and longtubes and made 360 to the wheels. The is some weird thing where everyone under cams these motors. I used to laugh at the guys with ported head and an lt4 hotcam barely making 350 whp lol.

@mrmister7526 5 ай бұрын

Wrong cam. Look at a llyod elliot 227/235 .565/.579 with 110 degrees. That cam has been shown to make good power to the wheel. It should easily make over 400 flywheel, especially in the configuration your motors are dynoed with.
