What do you think the specs are? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

He should. Since he is a tuner now he'll change the lift a bit and call it a Jantzer 232 cam. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" /> Did MMS tell you the lobes they use? I tried to find out but its top secret. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

I'm not sure on the specs of my new cam yet. Probably a 232/226 .59X .57X on a 111 or thereabouts. I may use nitrous so it could change....(cough MMS229?) But I could always switch later also. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

The MMS232 is not for me. I think the specs are around 232/232 .58X .58X 112 lobe sep. Because of the extended exaust duration, it'll peak too high for me. I don't think Mike liked it as well as the 229, it didn't seem to do any better at the track.

I think the power is made on the intake lobe, especially with the LS1, and more exaust duration than is necessary will just raise the powerband and lower the area under the curve in the 4500-6800 range.

Unlike other shops I wouldn't act like I origniated a cam that is simply a one-off of someone elses. In my opinion, MMS has been the originator of the best cams and has pushed the envelope more than any other tuner here. Most people here don't understand that. I'm quietly a big fan right now of the MMS229, but I think a few small changes could make it even better. I sure wish you would post some 229 graphs. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Now who is going to make it to the 9's first Terry?

Great times.
BTW I have to say those are some nice looking pictures of the intake port did you do those? They look really nice.
