You can buy it through GM. Check out Scoggin Dickey or Jim Pace.You could also have your existing heads CNC ported and buy an aftermarket cam.

Thank mike i'm going to check those site right now.

first thing is that AFR makes a much better flowing set of heads for that LT1 than chevy does and the HOT CAM is not the best choice , crane makes some better choices, call them.

thanks for the help your info is helping me to choose the combo i need to make my car faster.grumpyvette i see that you have 92&96 corvette modified so you know the lt-1 engine.I had build 94 vette with lingerfelter cam,arizona speed & marine heads,58mm throttle body,1.6roller rocker.Three different places program the computer and super chips finally got it right.I don't need that headache anymore

you want 450 at the wheels or at the crank?

 

if you've built LT1's before you know that a decent set of ported heads and a cc306 will do 450 and then some at the crank and retain a decent driveability.

 

i'd definately stray from the hotcam stuff like grumpy said. thats stuff is geared more towards driveability and meeting emissions requirements than towards power. if it's at the wheels, look at a 383-401 ci combo, w/ afr's and a solid roller.
