i want a bigger cam. i am bored with my TR224 114. it is a great cam, but i only got it because of smog in california. these are the ones i am looking at.
will any of these require anything special to run right. also installing. does it require putting in at any point besides dot to dot?

TR 230-236-112 590/598

LG G5X3-112 2??-2?? 600/610

Futral F14-112 232-234 598-598

i want something immpressive, but not crazy. i have all mods in my sig so i am setup for most cams. i have stock length hardened pushrods also. not sure if that will play a factor.

maybe LG G5X4 not sure how wild it is though on lift.
or trex

please help.

So know you're not worried about smog right?

I think the G5X3 would make ya smile. That would be my choice out of those.

Someone say technical opinion...

Go with the G5X3, but you would be wise to degree that cam. You want to be sure it's timed correctly to avoid problems.

Quickest lift, shortest duration, for a street car thats the way to go. Its a little harder on your valvetrain though.

when you buy the cam buy a set of heads and you will get there...

h/c will definitely get you to 450 if done correctly.

i have a set of pp stage 2 ls1 heads (see sig). i didnt want heads that change my compression ratio because of crappy california gas. i am limited on timing.

you might be able to get there. i wouldn't keep your hopes way up, but with a good tune its a maybe.

will i need to flycut with the g5x3? i have a 6 speed so i dont want to mess up and blow the motor or something. i have seen many horror stories on this site.

The G5x3 will put a big smile on your face , if you r running 112lsa and clynderheads ,probably u would need some piston notching , and heads miling .
A good tune will improve this cam ability .....

you can hit the 450hp like penuts ,,, no worries man ,,, good luck ....

is it the lift that causes the clearance issues? because the thunder cam is under .600 for lift. they seem to be a big difference. 590/598 vs. 600/610. what is the power difference? i want the 112 lsa on either cam.

i talked to lg today about flycutting and they said i would have to with stage 2 heads. that sucks. i did not want to go through that.

flycutting b/c of duration, lift, etc, just the exact placement of the valve, near or around TDC. I dont have a perfect explaination, but am looking for one.

they said it was due to lift and oversize valves. they due rent a flycutter for 100 + 350 deposit. that kinda kills my whole upgrading cam swap. i really dont want to fork out $900 to get this done. that sucks.
