AbstractAn extended set of evolutionary and pulsational models has been computed for two chemical compositions representative of classical Cepheids in the Large Magellanic Cloud. The comparison between the standard and He enhanced theoretical predictions is analysed and the implications for interpreting current observations and for defining the Cepheid based distance scale are discussed.
