Everyone has their own opinion on this but if it were me and sticking to a 67~76mm turbo Id keep duration 215 or below @.050'' and LSA 112~114 . I just tried a custom Isky 212-112 lsa in a TC76/stock long block 6.0, and it's pretty strong for what it is. We could see some low 10's out of it in my 4x4 truck if I decide to pull the pin on the gernade

Just curious what is your reasoning for this cam...? ie reverse split?

Can you explain why you chose these timing events?


Thx

That cam was Proved to be one of the best turbo LS cams around , i was interested in turbo charging my camaro years ago, and i did a lot of research and LS/turbo guys were getiing some very good results with the 222/216 camshaft,

My engine builder said it was a good choise and the reverse split prevents reversion, exhaust going the other way,
