Default What cam is Best

I narrowed it down to 2 Cams.

MS4
TSP 228r cam

I always hear that the MS4 Is a real big cam and the 228r is also a big cam. But no one says which is better. Car is my DD

TSP 228R excellent power under the curve. It gives you power everywhere and it delivers it smooth and constant through the power band. If you like accceleration and not just high rpm power go with the 228R. MS4 is good for higher peak numbers, but personally I don't drive around all day at 7200 rpm. And the 228R on a 114 LSA is very sneaky.

Lol. You need to do much more research. There are about 20 off the shelf grinds between those two cam sizes. Much too big of a spread to compare a max effort cam to an entry size cam.

Edit: Nevermind. Just get the biggest cam you can find and the biggest runner heads and DD that bitch.

If you dont know the difference between a 228 and an ms4, you better go with the 228. Look at Thunder Racing's site, they have a proven TR-228 cam.

i have a 228r and love it. just like others are saying. the cam provides a constant power throughout the power band. especially if you have a big stall or a manual.

Dude you are a clown you post **** you have no intentions of buying and waste vendors time. There is a reason pat g has a questionare. It helps eliminate people like yourself. If anyone looks at your threads it is pretty obvious you are wasting everyones time. Your endless mod lists of random ****, wtb supercharger thread, best twin turbo thread or that marvelous thread that got deleted yesterday. You list your dad's car in your signature and I doubt you even own the firehawk.
