I am ordering the Thunder Racing Custom Camshaft - 230/236 .590/.598 112 LSA 2400-6800 RPM Power Band. Excellent mid-range & high RPM power. 3200+ stall, 3.42+ gear, computer tuning required. Due to the fast ramp rate of this camshaft, the use of 1.8 rockers is not recommended.

with the 921 com spring kit will i need to shim these... if so to what extent and where can i get them?

will i need the ARP rod bolts? if so (forgive me for asking) will i have to pull the motor to install the rod bolts?

sorry for so many questions here lately but I am in the middle of making alot of changes to my car.

no shims required, the 921's already have enough seat pressure. you can swap the rod bolts with the engine still in the car but if it were me i'd pull it.

Rod bolts were done on my car with it in the car. Need to drop the kmember and jack the motor up off the tranny, plenty of room then to drop the oil pan and reach the rod bolts.

To prevent having to drop the kmember all the way you can remove your intake also... and you will be able to jack the motor up higher off the tranny giving you enough room.

are the rod bolts a must for the cam posted above.... if so i have no problem doing so... in fact next season when i spray it i plan to do forged pistons and rods..
what do you think the shift point and redline would be on this cam...

from what i can tell not many if any people have this cam so i haven't heard any thing about it...
or mabey i didnt catch it.

since you have an 02 you've got the best OEM rod bolts GM makes, i wouldnt change them myself with your cam. i dont see that cam peaking past 6500

I wanted to see how everything turned out with this cam. I ordered it a couple weeks ago and it should be here soon, damn backorder. Do you have any numbers or times. I am very curious, as I do not know of anyone else with it. If anyone else has it post up!

my stuff should be here by the end of this week... dont get to hasty... they had to grind mine.... and actuall its only been 2 1/2 weeks... if you dont wait and get something else you might regret it

I know I am just not a patient person, I would not be able to install this thing until the week of the 18th anyway. Hopefully youll beat me to the install
