There's a customer who just recieved the Stage 2.5 5.3L heads and the Tsunami that should be installing them in the next week or so IIRC. I bet he posts up his results when finished for us all!
With the minimal milling on the heads and this cam, you'll be running either a 7.40" or 7.425" pushrod.

I'm doing the install for Josh and thinking about the ptv clearance scares me! I finished tearing it down tonight and it will start going back together tomorrow, probably will not finish it up until Monday or Tuesday.
Off topic but, you TSP guys need to give me the low down on your shop car. I watched it lay down the 9.8x in Memphis and have decided that is my next project. I have a TA thats going to be about 2800 2900#'s with me in it and that would be the perfect setup for it. Low 10's high 9's on motor is the goal.

Josh, let us know if you run into any issues during the install that we can help with. Piston to valve clearance will not be a problem 
There's a thread in the single digit forum that talks more in depth about our racecar.

Can one of you guys elaborate a little more about the drivability/powerband of this cam?
I was going to be putting the tourquer 3 with your 5.3 heads on my car but after seeing this, this combo looks great.
I havent driven a car wither a torquer 3 in it yet, but i have read a lot of posts and they say its good for making power down low and pulling all th eway through the powerband.
On the tsp website your t3 cam says powerband is 2300-6800
now this new tsunami cam is listed at 2000-6600, is this cam making more power down low and more power overall over the tourqer?
lol now im tied between which cam to get
so basically looking for tsp's or somone's input on this

That is with no tuning. I could believe it started up and idled, it is hunting some but it was maintaining a idle at 750rpm. I will weld the o2 bung in it and start tuning the idle tomorrow and hopefully it will stop raining so we can get all the tune done.

We got the VE done tonight and will do the MAF tomorrow and then the WOT done. Getting the idle close was a PIA. It surprised me how pleasant it is to drive. His car had a 222/222 566/566 112 in it and you can tell no difference in the driveability.
Honestly, I tried to talk Josh out of buy a big cam after I pulled my TR224 cam infavor of a 228/228 581/581 112 and it killed .15 off what my car normally ran (but my mph went up 1.5), swapped them back and picked my .15 back up.

Have pretty much the same set up you have dont have a fast or the 85mm maf. It was dumped after the y pipe in the vid but have a bullet muffler dumped after the y and it really made a difference

Well driveability seems fine to me , i can tell it lost a little low end becasue i have to give it more gas to start off in second than i use to but other than that it seems the same till around 2500-3000 and then depending on what gear im in it either breaks them loose or hauls ***. I reallly like it thanks to the guys at TSP especially Matt for all there help.
