Hey I am about to put a 99 LS1 corvette motor in my 69 Nova and I just want to add a cam only. I was just trying to get some ideas for the best bang for the buck. I am looking for a mild cam that will make some power and also not make the car idle really bad seeming how the only thing I will have in the motor is the cam. I am also looking for some good ideas on what converter I should go with for the cam set up. Any Ideas I would love to hear them. I know out of the box the 99 LS1 corvette motor made 345 hp I would be happy if I could get 350 plus to the actually wheels with a good cam with out going all out with thw ls6 intake and what not. The only other real pland I have for the motor is a good set of headers and to port and polish my factory throttle body.
