Default What Cam for this heads



I just get this heads, thanks to Mrs Ronin, they are a 241's CNC ported Stage 2 with 918s and titanium retainers.

I have heard that is needed to match the cam with the heads. I am thinking on Texas Speed's TSP XS Series Camshaft: 228/228, .588"/.588, but Im not sure about the 918s handling a .588 lift.

I would like to hear your advice on what cam will be the best for this heads. I will use this heads with LTs, Duals, Lid, Ported TB, 4.10, LS7 clutch, etc. I want the best 1/4 mile preformance, but this is a daily drive M6. and wont pay more than 400 usd for a cam.

Thanks.

HZ

PS. Thanks in advance for your advices and sorry for my english.

the 918s will work great with the .588 lift. they are only rated to .600 but will handle .610 with enough clearance left. as for cams the 228 is a great street cam with plenty of potential.

Thanks for reply.

Is it posible with this set up get high 11s? Any other cam that can be suggested?

What about MTI G1 (228 232 .588 .575 113 ) Its look prety similar to the TSP228, or this MTI X1 (230 227 .591 .571 112 ).

Please Help me!!!! I need to chose one asap

High 11's is possible but not probable. If you want 11's you will need some heads to go along with that cam.
