Default whats a good cam?

Alright im looking for a good cam. My car is stock but plan on puting about 5 grand into in the next mouth. Im looking for a not to argessive cam but something with power. If this helps at all what im planing on doing is LT headers, true duals, bolt ons, and maybe 12 bolt rear-end.

Thanks for your help,

Carter

I personally like the Canon Powershots better than the Sony Cams. In all seriousness, the best middle of the road cam is any of the 224 cams. Use the 114 LSA for an auto and a 112 for a manual.

The TR 224 is a great all around cam, and you might want to look into the new TSP torquer cam.

I was just in your position for the past month. I would take a look at this thread: https://ls1tech.com/forums/showthrea...highlight=fm13
there is some good information there on the torquer and f13. I just recently went with the tsp torquer myself, and if you plan to go that way, check out texas speed's thread here: https://ls1tech.com/forums/showthrea...ht=texas+speed
they are having an awesome sale and the prices are pretty hard to pass up. Talk to Trevor, he helped out a lot on any questions I had!! Anyway, good luck

i couldn't have said it better myself...i've not yet heard ONE bad thing about them...in fact i have heard unbelievable stuff about them...such as taking customers to eat when they go over schedule and what not...not to mention their cams make incredible mid-range...and that f-13 makes more power than many cams bigger than itself....i'd expect to shift at 6200-6500 if you want to make full use of the power though...
