I am working on my heads/cam swap and I just have a few basic questions.

Stg. 1 ls6 heads with a tv2 cam kit from tsp.


How well do the ls6 springs hold up should I get stronger springs?

Is the correct size push rods? 7.350?

Which timing chain should I get?

My car has the basic bolt ons such as long tubes, catback, ls6 intake, and a lid. I dont set dyno goals but I am just wondering what I should expect on a dyno jet. Thanks

LS6 springs will not be strong enough for that cam.

You need to measure for correct pushrod length. I can throw out any number but guessing may not be good enough.

The LS2 chain should be fine to use with that setup.

You should see 400+rwhp.

Ok thanks. This is my first heads/cam swap so I just wanted to double check everything. Glad I asked.

Looks like the total in parts / labor / tune = 3400.

My Torquer 2 M6, made 343 on a dyno dynamics dyno, if you go by 12 percent low compared to a dyonjet it made 384 without a under drive pulley, stock maf, 4.10s and a set of 18s.

I dont think im going to change the ud pulley. I still have the stock tb and I was thinking of getting it ported. My car right now is at 340rwh.

I almost forgot to ask. The car has a napa clutch kid. I do not know much about it I believe it was around $400. Should I buy an ls7 clutch or hold off a while?

i would hold off untill the clutch starts slipping and a ls7 clutch will more then hold you when you do upgrade

MikeWS6

Ok the clutch doesnt even have a thousand miles on it yet.

Must likely the clutch would be fine unless you start shifting at 6500 rpm a lot then it will start wearing out/slipping.

We alway recommend the PRC spring kit with our camshaft packages. do not use the ls6 standard springs with your camshaft.

If you let us know the serial number on the heads we can figure out what they are milled & give you a close bet on what pushrods you need. That being said we always recommend checking the p/v with a pushrod length checker.

MikeWS6

Ok thank you. I'll give you a call at some point.

My clutch went out immediately after my H/C install. You can get a Diamond stage 2 for $100 more when they are on sale....much better clutch in every aspect and good for 600hp.
