Default Looking for DOHC ZC to LS cam swap company

Who are the guys that do the LS cams swap into the ZC motors? I think it was something like xxx-racing (xxx replaced with the real three initials) like DHR-racing or something along those lines. Tried a search, but obviously "LS" is too small to search on and didnt find anything else. Anyone know what im talking about.... ?

I dont know about cams but I know they can modify the ZC head to accept LS valvetrain.

Cut and pasted from their site..............

DOHC ZC To LS Head Package

This is the option all DOHC ZC Owners are raving about. With no valvetrain upgrades available for the ZC, we offer a way out. By line boring we allow the install of LS Valvetrain. This head packages recieves our full attention with competition port work, LS dual valve springs, and LS titanium retainers. Also, the head comes with polished high flow valves, resurfacing, and polished combustion chambers.

ALL Head Package Pricing Is In Addition To The Stock Ported Pricing.



Price: $ 525.00

That is not a bad price, look what you will pay for ZC regrinds. And for the D series people this opens up a whole new world of mod possibilities, on a motor 1/2 the price of a B series and a lot lighter.

Finally someone see's what potential this holds, think, eagle rods, your choice of pistons, and a world of cams to take advantage of the other changes you can make.

Yes but I will have a 100 lb advantage over you from a lighter engine, try to get rid of that much elsewhere on a car that is already lightened. Think about it, ZC making power in the B16 range but 100lbs lighter. Do the math. THat is not a small amount of weight to lose from a car just to get back to total weight parity with a built ZC equiped car.

Pluss, we get stock oil to water coolers! Suckers!
Also, there is absolutley no reason for this modification when you can get SS valves from Endyn and ferea makes zc springs and retainers to your spec... I had my ss retainers and springs for like $480 I think it was... Also, there are about 10 places I can think of that will make a cam to any spec you want for half the price of a set of ls bump sticks... So realy, there is no point.
