[QUOTE="yotarocks, post: 248226, member: 1657"] I thought about going the same route. You may check into a set of 243 heads(smaller combustion chamber and smaller intake ports for better low end), shave them to get to about a 11:1 cr (stock lq4 is around 9.5:1 I believe, and still run pump gas). Talk to TSP or one of the shops that can custom grind a cam. Tell them what you're wanting to do and they should be able to get you a good, lowend high torque cam profile. Considering the ls motors love to live at high rpms, that should help bring the power and torque curve down the rpm range some, and put it where it's more usefull towing. I've been told you can get a fairly broad torque curve out of the ls if it's set up for it. May be something to check into since you already have the lq4 and are thinking of freshing it up anyway.
