so i finished my H/C/I install,

and my 226/226 patriot cam is great, but its just not as big as i want to,

i got the ls6 stageII patriot heads, 59cc, so i cant get the cam i want (ms4)

so i need help to pick the "biggest" cam i can install with out further modds,

few things i want to clear out first,

i will not flycut my pistons,
i will not measure the ptc
the patriot ls6's got welded chambers, so i can go with a bigger cam.
i know i can go to the 23?/23? zone, but how far?

i just installed the engine in to the car and i am not goin to rip it out agen,

someone here must have done this,

thanks!

try some searching, there are hundreds of threads on here about this. I would check out a V3 tho if dont want to cut or better yet, have a custom one made up by comp cams.

futral F14 or the torquer V2

you could go bigger, but those both yield awesome results and very good driveability

i will not measure the ptv because i am not goin to take the head of agen, i was just installing them with brand new ls6 multy layer gaskets, and the motor is finaly in the car,

this is the lounge of ls1 tuners, so i figured someone here must know this,

i not trying to be boring

thanks for the answers though,

i am looking for 450wrhp+

You dont have to remove the heads to measure PTV clearances.

Cam recommendations are great, but to go ahead and install a larger cam without measuring - guess & hope for the best is just nuts. But hey, its your ride!

Just think of the extra work you'll need to do if your valve does hit a piston. You'll be doing a lot more than just removing the heads at that point.

i know that, thats why i havent allready just ordered the ms4,

i am looking for someone with the same hads i have, to hear what they have bin doing, not just installing something that should be okey and hope the best,

450rwhp is a tall order with those heads without sticking a monster cam.
Be more realistic and put in a strong but more well rounded cam. That will get you close though.

231/238 .643/.605 112+4 LSA

thank you, do you think that cam will "fit" without any problems?

i like the specs, i want lower lsa though, i love the lope sound of my 112LSA cam
