AUTO MASTERS/LPE LT5 FOR AUCTION

[Pete]

Can you tell us the specs of those cams.
I'm close to 465RWHP in my 350ci stock buttom end and still looking.

500rwhp is very doable in a 350ci i'm a believer

I will have new cams made,do you think 450 lift will help?

It's been so long ago I can't come close to remembering but Graham at LPE is the one who designed them. He is still thgere and might be able to give you some info but as I remember, he was very proprietary about the exact specs.

My two cents, but if you already have an engine in your car in good shape, you could get a similar package for less. It's basically just a fully ported 350, but without headers, without injectors/sensors, and with labor needed to install it into your car, for a few grand more than something like a Haibeck 500 package (which it basically is).

While I can appreciate in this case you'd have two engines, I suspect some people are like me and have no place nor desire to store an engine in their house. But if you needed an engine and wanted more oomph than stock, it sounds like a good buy.

No, of course not. Those cams were very aggressive as the hp numbers suggest. Also, in race trim there are many other benefits which free up hp i.e., limited (and missing) accessories, large headers with shortened exhaust, etc.

Hardly
You might notice the engine is advertised as having complete upper porting and polishing. There are special pistons & rings installed, the lower end has been completely balanced. The cams have been timed accuately for optimum hp and torque. HP numbers depend on the setup. I.e., injectors, headers, exhaust, calibration, etc. Numbers would start at 480hp and go up from there. 500+ w/headers etc. in a street car. Nice and driveable.
