    So you're telling me a dual pattern nitrous cam that inherently gives up a bit on the top end due to the increased lobe separation and exhaust duration is going to run with a purpose built high lift N/A grind cam? A blower/turbo cam WILL be weak -- and a purpose built nitrous cam is gonna be pretty much as strong as an N/A cam until the top 1/3rd or so of the RPM band -- and that's where these peak numbers everyone likes to quote so much come from. Go throw a .600+ lift, high rpm cam with agressive timing and fuel map in Del's motor and watch it pick up...or maybe Ls1's operate on a different set of physics than the rest of the earth.
    Yes, I'm under 75 years old and I drive a Cadillac...anyone up for the early-bird special?

    What i was saying is that 98% of nitrous cams are ground for a duel purpose use... I know what del's specs are and it's a na/nitrous cam. Don't get me wrong, del's car is fast as fuck. I just think with a little better set up.. it should run alot harder.. Sorry i reread that post and it was a little mean. Sorry bart didn't want it to come off that way..
