Default Question about the ZZP GT1 camshaft

I am thinking about installing the ZZP GT1 camshaft in my Monte Carlo, but I was wondering if I do install it, will it dramatically lower my engine life?

Dramatically lower- no, not really. Obviously wear is increased with more lift- but its not that radical of a cam.


However, I'd personally suggest considering another route (ie boost via a top swap or turbo). You'd make a lot more power, and have a lot more options doing a top swap. Thats the main reason why you don't see hardly any NA builds anymore.

Spend thousands of dollars, rebuild everything, and match your stock L67 ANYDAY :P

who am I kidding... the second I have the expendable income and have the work done I want done... it's gonna be boosted.
