    2010 camaro , how to tune varible camshaft

    Hi everyone in the degrees table, I only can enter positive values so I asumme it only advances the cam?

    Has anyone disabled the variabel cam settings?

    We are doing a cma swap tomorrow and It would be great to have this info

    Thanks beforehand for your help

    they are positive values, but I beleive they are the number of degrees the cam is being retarded. I actually have a question out to HPT to verify this. The cam also has an inital value that can be positive and negative. So, one of the things I would like to test is to set the inital value advanced, and then add the number of degrees to retard the cam to see if that would work.

    Yeah we added these tables a couple of months ago from memory

    It doesn't have to be perfect, it just needs to be done in two weeks...

    Think I'll stick with disabling DOD and charging to replace the DOD lifters for now.

    Can you guys just add a box to dial in the amount of horsepower we want, and it just does it automatically?

    You have to understand the power potential that being able to dial a camshaft back and forth 20 -50 degrees can have...

    I'm playing with my VCT tunign now, and so far I haven't seen ANYONE post up on doing anything with it. You could do so much with a small cam and VCT people are just overlooking the obvious. I think folks will catch up, its just going to take awhile....

    Very nice. Let's say I want to fit VCT to my LS3 after-market.

    Will we need an OS upgrade to see this?
    Do we need harness mods. for the ECU to control it?
    This is electronic VCT control (not hydraulic), is it not?

    I'm pretty sure you'd need the E67 setup from the Camaro.
