Please Give Input on Cam
I am looking at at a 229/230 .570 lift on both sides and a 113 LSA. I drive an 03Z and will stay with 243 heads initially, but will have them ported and polished. What kind of lope does this cam have. What kind of power should I expect with LT headers, pulley, tune, vararam? How will this differ from a TSP 228R? My car is daily driven, would going with a TSP torquer v.2 be too big my needs.
Thanks
Alex

I would just go with a proven cam from one of our vendors like TSP that you mentioned. Let them know what your expectations are and I'm sure they can point you to the right cam for your goals. As far as a cam being "too big" it's really all in the tune. I have a G5x3 112 LSA and it rides no different then stock... besides the hard lope and added power of course.

I believe some would call that a baby cam. I just got my car running after putting milled 243's,Yella Terra rockers, pp throttlebody, ls6 intake, headers, x pipe Corsas and Comp cam 224/230 .581 .592 @114. Untuned the car screams. (At least to me) Nice little chop to idle. The tuner I'm using called mine a "baby" cam.
