Default PP ls6 stg2 Tsp 231/237 install

Just completed my PP ls6 stg2 heads, Tsp 231/237 cam, and pacesetter lt with ory install.

First a thank you to all the information provided by ls1tech members With all your info I was able to do it on my own with out a single mishap or problem.

Second thanks go to the guys at Tsp for the good advice and cheerfull service. Brian was great to deal with.

First impressions, car sounds wicked at idle. Even with the CME exauhst its toned down but won't be mistaken for stock. With cut out open I was hard pressed to wipe the grin off my face. Unfortunatly the roads here are still coverd in white, so a road test will be eagerly anticipated. I will post dyno #s as soon as possible. Thanks again all.

Congrats man, I know you'll love that combo! The TSP 231/237 has a wicked idle and a killer powerband, when you mate the Patriot heads to it... it just gets better I ran that combo for 6 months or so and the only bad thing I can say about it was that I had to buy new rear tires

I have the same cam on order. I can't wait to see what it's got when I spray a 175 wet shot along with my 5.3 Stage 2 heads. Traction will not be a concern....I got all the toys for drag racing! My biggest fear is rear bumper getting abused!!!

Congrats guy.

Just finished mine also. What's an exhaust. True duals dump just before the axels . An awesome sound. We have to shut all the doors to the office it is so loud. Not sure how I am going to get a miles on the car, it just snowed again today . I have only a surging idle to deal with and it will be ready. Awesome is all I can say. I will be going with a 150 shot of TNT . TSP and Patriot really helped a bunch. I have video of the initial start up (with sound) but can't get it to load to E-mail or anything else. To large I guess.

I am waiting for my parts also, I just can not take it any longer! I have the 231/237 with the pp ls6's ordered. Wish those timing chains would get in. I can feel spring in the air and I need to go fast!

Congrats on the new set up. I'm staring at my TSP 231/237 cam right now on my bedroom floor waiting to go in. Unfortunately, this white crap is falling right now so I have to wait.
