Default Should i do this cam???

Texas Speed 233/239 595"/.603" and on a 113 LSA.

Right now i have lt's, o/r y, cutout, lid, built 4l60e with a tci3500 converter. runing 3.23's.

Would this be a good cam for my DD?

Also if anyone has any clips of a similar spec cam please post i would like to hear.

is your car 01-02? if not get the ls6 intake so you can be breathing great for a cam. if it is, then go for it! id say its fine for a DD, but then again, i have a friend that drives a MS4 in his DD so my definition of "streetable" is dif than other peoples. sooo IMO, you are good to go.

Good Deal! Roller cams don't wear out like flat tappets do. That cam willprobally look brand new.
