Default GT-1 Cams

What could you do with these: would they work on the street/350 setup?

The cams I imagine would be peaky, and perform more on the high end as that is where the race car was designed to be.

peaky is putting it mildly IMO, car would have to be light to boot. cool s**t though. i imagine this is older stuff so again, IMO, the cam profiles will be a little dated compared to what can be ground today. camshaft technology has come a long way in the last ten years. you all know how good LT-5's sound, with a 180° crank at RPM it would be evil, but narrow.

Man, if I could build the LT5 with about 12:1 compression and a real healthy set of cams and still pass smog Id dump the musclecar so fast it'd make your head spin. The sight of a Zr1 while hearing one loping away......Doesnt get better than that.

Thought about this myself but.....These cams are set up for the flat plane degree crank.
If I could find a set of huge cams that would suit me just fine
