Default another cam decision thread

I was looking originally at getting the tsp 231/237, but looks to be the 233/239 is a bit of a better cam. I wasn't wanting to go biggest possible on a daily driver etc (i.e. Trex or MS3) but there doesn't seem to be much diff from the 233/239 to ms3 237/242 with a bit more lift as well. So for a daily driven m6 with stock 3.42 gears, hooker lt's, 3 in duals (x), ls6 intake, 80 mm tb etc which cam would you guys go for?

Also saw the Tourqer 2 which is in the same area as the 233/239 cam. Thoughts on that?

Possibly even something more mild?

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Will there be much difference in spring wear going from the 233/239 or driveability with that cam?

Give TSP a call.
Tell them exactly what your setup is like, and what you want out of the cam (DD, top end only, broad tq curve, valve spring life, etc.)

They will help you choose from their selection of TorquerII, 233/239 and MS3. For valve spring life, 231/237 is a great choice, but it will give up some low end power and driveability to the others mentioned due to its slower ramp rates.
