Default my cam trade
I recently posted my cam and pushrods on craigslist for trade for a ls6 intake. A guy
on hit me up yesterday asked me if i would trade for his fast 102 intake. If he is serious would the intake be to much for my stock ls1 all my mods are in the signature. Im sure its just another craigslist flake.

You will get better results with the cam then you will with the intake.

I know i would get more power from the cam but its not the cam i wanted. I feel like my torque would be really low with the duration it has. Plus i picked it up for 40 bucks. I know i would never find a fast 102 that cheap.

You shouldnt even have to think about this one.. A fast 102 is worth far more than the ls6, and will never give you less power than the ls6. Make the trade.

Yeah that should be a no brainer $400 cam even though you paid $40 vs $900 intake, too bad the person was a sham.

Well i decided to just put the cam in. Do you guys think I
will have low torque 605/608 235/244 114 lsa. And would 625 beehive springs work ok or should i get 650 springs. Im poor so i was looking into the pac 625s they are like 50 bucks cheaper than the pac 650s on ws6store.

Don't go cheap on springs, you may pay for it in the long run. I would look into the ones that Brian Tooley sells.

Not a bad price at all. Doesn't come with a tool, the springs come with matching tool steel retainers

That cam has a lot of duration, what heads are you going to run with it?
