Default Besides SLP who sells 115 or 116 LSA cams...

...with .55x I/E lift and I/E duration of not more than 222? (Looking for a cam with a near-stock idle, but more lift & a little more duration than stock.) I checked Lunati's catalog, but their wide LSA cams only go up to .525 or .534 lift.

Alternatively, who makes the cam for SLP?

How about our TR220/220 .553/.553 114lsa. This cam has a near stock idle and great drivabilty. And it's been proven to make great power. We can custom grind any of our cam with a different LSA if you still want that.

Thanks for the quick responses! Paul, I may give you a call & see what you can do. I've always had great service from Thunder. (Example: Placed an order for an SLP ASR reversal module last Wednesday afternoon, had it in my hand Friday evening. Nice.)

Emissions would be better.
Idle would be smoother.
Powerband will be higher.
Midrange power will be reduced a little.

Your requirements suggest the ’02 LS6 camshaft to me: I/E, 204/218, .551/.541, 117.5 LSA

So Paul... What cam specs would be needed to make all your power at a lower point in RPM's so you could use a higher LSA? I have been reading alot on this, and still don't see the whole picture.

I've got 114lsa cams on the shelf now or if you want to do a 115 or 116lsa just let me know.

What's the physical difference between LSA 112,114,115,116 ??? I know that the higher the LSA, the lesser the overlap, the better the emissions... But would the idle be better/worse... Is LSA 116 possible on a TR224 cam ?
