I've already been trying to convince the customer to buy a fast 92 setup.

Are you guys going to include a cam card with the cam for people degreeing the cam? I know this was a problem with LG motorsports before hiding their cam specs. Just something I would like to know before purchasing.

Thank you for all the kind words guys! We'll get some track times ASAP, hopefully with a FAST 92/92 combo and a set of Kooks longtubes installed.

I would absolutely daily drive this cam. Often, when you install a big cam in a stock cubed LS1, you'll suffer while daily driving due to the loss of torque down low. Obviously, with this bumpstick, that isn't an issue.

Just make sure you've got a good tuner. I'd definitely suggest a 4.10 or steeper gear for a 26" tire street car, although it probably isn't 100% necessary.

Absolutely. The cam card will be included with the cam.

I'd probably stick with 3.73's in an A4 car, 4.10's with a th350 or 400. The difference in a stalled A4 would hardly be noticable ET wise, but the 3.73's would deffinately be a bit better for the highway. If you step the tire size up to a 28" diameter then 4.10's may be the better choice however.

Guys that name is great. You need to do a whole line of cams ie; "The polluter", then "gross polluter"; then for the ultimate monster cam maybe call it something like the Chernobyle, or the Exxon Valdez. The tree huggers will love it!

Jonathan think you guys could start the pull from like 1500-2000 rpms so we can see how much low end power this big cam really makes?

Question

With a set of 215's, would it still require fly-cutting on a stock bottom-end 346?

Curious about this since the Trick Flows are suppose to offer more PTV.

I figured the 4.10's were for a M6 car. Very interesting cam...I wouldn't want to sacrifice my street TQ just for better ET's at the track. Deff has me interested. Thanks for the Info John.

Awesome name for the cam, however i was wondering if you had any other information that could be told if the customer has reported? obviously if your buying a cam named the polluter you shouldnt be concerned with gas milage but iam some what. Also do you think it is a good cam to build upon i dont have extensive modifications to my car but iam will be putting more into it over the winter season Long tubes y pipe etc... thank you in advance and good luck with selling the product!
