GPI L99 Camshaft VVT - SS2 VVT (2010 - 2015 Camaro) - SS2VVT
Street/Strip VVT Camshaft for Stronger Top-End Power
The GPI SS2 VVT Camshaft is engineered for 5th Gen Camaro L99 owners who want a more aggressive street/strip setup with stronger top-end performance than the SS1 VVT - while still retaining excellent drivability. Designed for the 2010 - 2015 Chevrolet Camaro L99, this camshaft has become a proven performer across the country, delivering reliable power gains and VVT-enhanced throttle response.
With a 3000+ stall converter, the SS2 VVT shines. It matches the low-end torque of the SS1 VVT but adds approximately 10 - 15 horsepower at higher RPM, pulling hard to 6700 RPM. Rear-end gear upgrades are recommended for maximizing acceleration and overall performance.
Proven Performance: 10-Second Capable
GPI Cam & Head packages using the SS-Series VVT cams have carried numerous L99-powered 5th Gen Camaros deep into the 10-second quarter-mile range. The SS2 VVT continues this legacy with strong midrange and top-end performance backed by real-world track data.
Ideal for N/A Builds - Excellent with Centrifugal Boost
While optimized for naturally aspirated engines, the SS2 VVT performs extremely well with centrifugal superchargers thanks to its linear power curve. It's a perfect choice for owners planning to add boost later without changing cams.
A Four-Cam VVT Lineup
GPI offers four VVT camshaft profiles for the L99 engine, ranging from mild to all-out N/A race applications. The SS2 VVT sits between SS1 and SS3 - delivering stronger top-end power while remaining very street-capable.
