Torquem

Hello,
I'm looking into a cam for my 01 M6 Z28 but there are some factors that will effect my choice. Also, assume the car will have every bolt on with stock heads. (I.E longtubes, lid, all that garbage)

1. the car will very much so be a daily driver. Sometimes 100+ miles a day. Mostly highway.
2. the car will NEVER see the track
3. The car will probably never even see drag radials
4. I want it to sound as lopey as possible
5. since i havnt done gears yet, I can get 3.73's or 4.10's to work with the cam

so basically i want something that sounds as insane (as possible), and will work for occassional highway romps and stoplight smoke shows. all without ill effect to daily driving (again, if possible)

Thanks for any input!

The TR 224 is a great choice for a daily driver although I'm not sure it will lope like you want it to. The gm hotcam would lope for you and give great valvespring life, but it won't put up the numbers that the tr224 will although you'll still get a good gain with it.

F11 cam for ya - FUTRAL---------->

go with a numericaly lower lobe separation number on the cam. Ex: 112 , 110 LSA.

TR224 on 112 with a slow idle.

i'd suggest the fm4-112 ... but either way just give futural a call and they'll get you on your way

Definately go with futral. My buddy has the f-11 and while its quite nice, we were expecting more lope from it. Id say to look at the f-13. If I was doing a cam swap today on my daily driver, thats the cam Id get.

if you want a fast cam only car, TSP makes great products.

but keep in mind good gas consumption is sacrificed for speed...

i think what u want lies in a 94' honda civic or something similar that can be driven millions of miles on 1 tank of gas, then get whatever cam u want for the ls1 man.

doubt that 100 mile ride is going to be a lot of fun with a big lopey cam. just my .02

i had the same thoughts on the fm11 on a 114lsa.it sounded very quite. i wanted more so i went with the fm14. id get the fm11 for your situation

ps-ill take your hunk of crap if you dont want it

God i hate these FMXX cams. List the Fing specs. What the hell are the specs on the FM11/13/what ever the hell else they have in the FMXX cams DAMN. IF you want some insain idle go with the TSP233/233 cam.

I love my F13!!!! I had the same requirements as you. Go with FMS, you can't go wrong

F13=(230/232) .595/.585 112+4

Tell me about it. Its hard to keep up with all the grinds available. c1, c2, b1, t1, trex, on and on.

If wicked idle is the number one criteria get a the gm asa cam or grand cup cam. nothing idles rougher than them.

Buddy of mine has the cup cam. His car is not up and running yet but i did hear it in someone elses car. It was insane. More than Torquem want. I think.

Too lazy to click on the Futral banner?

100 mile ride with a lopey cam is rather fun actually.

I don't think length of ride with or without a lopey cam is any different. Once you're at cruising speed, the lope is gone. I had a 69 Grand Prix that had such a radical cam in it you'd think it was going to stall on the low side. I used to drive that from Long Island to Oneonta (270+ miles) and back regularly.

Gotta say... nuthin like that "Rump Rump Rump" sound and feel sitting at a light.

Man, am I finding that out!
