I didn't delete the MAF and I do not have an UDP. You'll be happy with either the Tsunami or MS4, those are my favorites.

what about this one?
Custom 234/242 .602/.605" 112LSA +4 advance cam ground with EPS lobes
lol... according to a thread on here it did some magic numbers! but the thread turned into a big fight about dynoing 503rwhp on a Mustang dyno as oppose to a Dynojet 248 (I believe).
here check it:

http://forums.corvetteforum.com/c6-t...s-503rwhp.html

that is fairly your setup minus the MAF delete, TB and underdrive pulley but different cam.

I read that thread. I guess I would have to see it to believe. Not trying to bash the OP it's just those numbers are amazing and would have to be proved to me before I believed it.
I'm sure you'll be fine with one of the popular "over the counter cams". You can also call comp and texas speed and pick their brains on the matter,

Yeah, I am still leaning more towards the Tsunami pacakge. I will say that for your numbers, with intake and cam only... they may have bashed you too. 460-480 on a dyno jet with 102intake, cam, full exhaust and a good tune to me is logical. I will call Texas Speed Monday morning, seems they are closed for the weekend. Thanks once again tx_z06... you have helped more that I would had expected.

Anytime, my friend. BTW- I know my numbers are above the norm but I have the dyno chart, dyno video, and 1/4 ET to back it up so I can't really be bashed, lol.

Don't forget about piston to valve clearance.

Fran at RPM (race proven motorsports) has an RPM 3 cam that is bad @ss, you might want to give him a call as well. Great guy, fun to talk to.

What are the cam specs? Are you running this cam? I'd be interested in seeing what kind of numbers this cam is producing...

I am not running that grind, I thought about it but with my car being a DD I felt it was a little big.

I have them at work I think, you can also call Fran, he will share his knowledge and the specs of his cams.

After doing some research on the Tsunami cam, it seems like it would be a very good performer in an LS2..

I might have to try it myself to see if i can get close to tx_zo6 numbers as they are very impressive!

thats what I said... lol
I planned on the 102mm intake and tb, the UD pulley, I have a set of Kooks 1 3/4" LT's in the garage, Need to buy the x pipe (o/r), I have a set of z06 mufflers modded in the garage, so the only other componet is the cam... and from all the help tx_z06 is giving me, I think I am really leaning towards it.

Thanks, dude. I noticed you said your vette was a DD so a huge cam was kinda an issue. I can say this, the car is very driveable but is very loud, shakes a lot at idle, and is VERY fulie do to the overlap in the cam. It has also become quite a gas guzzler,
If that doesn't bother you then get the Tsunami, it obviously makes **** loads of power and sounds meaner than hell. I love it and all the mentioned issues minus the gas guzzling, lol.

Neumonic, off topic, I noticed you are in St. Louis, my aunt is a newscaster there, Karen Foss. Woot Woot!

This is very interesting, I put down 399/403 after my Fast 102 install and tune. Almost identical numbers.

Neumonic, I'm a 34 year St. Louis native too...have been thinking about moving back, but one good thing about FL is no inspections. Is STL still doing inspections? I'd hate to have to change my cam back to stock every year!

I remember talking with you about that, did you live in Balwin?

Come on back!

I believe they plug into the computer to make sure the vehicle isn't throwing codes is about it. The guy I used for my last inspection said go crazy if I want.
