Default LS2 DYNO: baby 224 cam + bolt-ons.....

Well everyone told me this was gonna be too small a cam to be worth it on an LS2, but I'm VERY happy with the results....

baseline pull was headers/exhaust/tune only. The final pull added the cam, springs, pushrods and a cold air kit.

cam specs: TSP "224XE" -- 224/224 .567/.567 113 LSA

The idle is noticeably not stock, but there's definitely no hellacious lope like an S-cam or anything. she pulls nicely and there's still good power all over the range. With the exception of having to be a little more liberal with the throttle from standing starts, it's pretty stock feeling.

Congrats! For an all around performer the 224 cams own all.

Thumbs up

Those are great numbers with a mild cam going through cats on a IRS car. As good as the LS1 responds to mods, the LS2 responds even better. Enjoy!

I'm not quite sure, but I don't think it would be a KILLER gain over my 404. For small cam, the stock 243 heads probably handle the flow pretty well.

lmao, you fk'er!

Goes by the name of Soliari on this board. In fact I've got the cam card. He was able to knock of .6 off his ET. The cam had great low end and mid range torque and nice top end just like this setup. Was a very fun car to drive.

Don't worry Al, I've already got a cam that I'm going to try out. See how the car responds. It isn't going to be close next time
