Well looking at cams right now. I have an LY6, I was looking at a cam kind of close to the specs of the Gm Ls hot cam. In the description they made mention of very low manifold vacuum will not operate power brakes.
I obviously have power brakes, plus I might run a carb with a vacuum secondary.
Does anybody know roughly at about what point or size of cam for an ls does vacuum become a problem and how does that affect a vacuum secondary carb?
Oh btw the car will be a weekend driver, cruise with the family, occasional burn out and I would like it to have a little choppy idle and some good power. Possibly take 2hr driver to NY to visit family.
There is a very good deal on stock ls3 camshafts with the cam gear. Ive been looking around at other options. I know the ls3 cam will give good drive-ability, vacuum, A hotcam or equivalent will give more power and a choppy Idle.
As I type I guess I should just go with the LS3 cam but I guess a little more info and opinions wont hurt.
Thanks guys
