Re: good cams for NA ls?? (SamuraiJack)
Get the 403's if it's a daily driver. You can run them on stock springs and they add good power. The 404's would be OK too, but you'd need aftermarket valve springs, S-AFC, cam gears, and tuning to make them run right. If you have the money for all that at once, get the 404's. But the 403's are a great street cam for a car with stock rev limit and stock springs. I have the 403's and love them.

Re: good cams for NA ls?? (JCracer723)
I have a couple questions. What company besides Crower makes cams for the LS nonVTEC motor?
You guys that installed 403 or 404s in your LS(with tuning etc.) how much of a difference do you feel? About how much would that knock off your e.t?
Thanks.

Yeah, I ran the car back in March when I had i/h/e/cat/no ps belt/crower 403/aem cam gears untuned at +2/-2. I also had some weight reduction. I ran a 15.1 and my high trap speed was 90 mph. The cams make power, evidenced by my time. They pull hard. You'll love them.

Also raising the redline would make an enormous difference.

Re: good cams for NA ls?? (Mixxed Bboy)
crane cams make some too. they have some decent lookin profiles...
all other companys that i have found like gude and such use re-grinds
crane also makes a single valve spring and retainer combo for the ls as well
