I love the hotcam but I dont know.

How far am I going to be able spin this thing and keep making power? Will LE2 heads and all the supporting mods produce the targeted 370rwhp? I sure hope so. I just dont want to spin the M6 past 6200 rpm. Maybe a better cam that makes power at the lower rpm? I thought about having the package specific for a 6200 rpm peak with a friendly emissions grind.

Lloyd has a LE1 Emissions cam. It's larger than a Hotcam and works well with the heads and is good when you want to keep the motor under 6300rpm.

What kind of power has been made with that emissions cam? I want this car to be very emissions friendly and still make decent power.

It's emissions friendly.... and probably worth 15-20hp more than the HotCam

Bret, I assume you don't want to post specifics but can you give me some idea how it compares to the GM 845 cam (214/224 at .050",488/509 w/ 1.5 rockers,112 lsa) in specs and power characteristics?

I has more duration and more overlap but it DOES work as a emission cam.

I always have more lift than most guys on my cams as well. The emissions cam lift can vary with the valve springs.
