So this is just a nasty, bad *** cam huh. With some 4.10 gears, and damn good tuning, could this be a "decent" street cam? Or a little too radical.

I think torque will give this cam good street manner...and the fact that it doesnt need to spin to 7000rpm...

Yea, that is what I'm thinking. And the 112 LSA might help with the bucking and surging, obviously with a good tune also. I think I might have to pick up this cam...

Yea, that promo was pretty sweet. One other question I have, this cam on the 112 works on the stock heads...have you tried other heads, such as 2.5 5.3 heads, up to AFR 205 and 225's? Good cam for other combinations? Or the 110 lsa for larger heads, like the AFR or TEA's.

i'd like to see some results using this cam on a 110 lsa with flycut pistons, milled heads, a thinner head gasket, and e85!

that way i won't have to dyno my junk when it's done haha.

What about Horsepower in a 02 C5 vette with LT's, LS6 intake, Borla catback, Diablo Tune, TCI 3500 stall and a 3.42 rear gear?

The PTV clearance is borderline of what I would consider acceptable for a hydrolic roller. It does have slightly more PTV clearance than a few other larger camshafts out however. It should work well with 2.5 5.3 heads, cnc'd LS6 heads, etc but with any milling, thiner gaskets, or larger valves ptv only becomes closer and some combos will require notching.


We have a car in the shop right now scheduled for the cam on a 110 LSA along with the TFS 215's milled to 58cc's. The pistons were notched already from a previous cam/head combo so hopefully everything will work out. The car is an a4 so don't expect record breaking dyno numbers however. I'll post the results as soon as we get them.

Guys,

I ordered this cam this past Friday. If you have any interest in this cam, definately call them up and talk to Joey. My polluter is going in a week from this saturday. I will have dyno result for you guys that following week.
