Default ls2 l92 head and v3 tourqer cam

I have an ls2 with l92 heads and am planning on using a v3 tourqer cam with a ls3 intake. Any suggestions or advice with this combo? Thanks.

Pick a different cam, and use LS3 heads or at least LS3 valves in those heads. Square port heads need a square port specific cam to perform to their potential and the TV3 uses stupidly aggressive lobes that are hard on valvetrain parts, and solid L92 valves are heavy and harder to control.

I agree with Fry. I once used the tourqer v3 cam and never again will I use a cam with such aggressive lobes (a.k.a. lobes with extremely fast ramp rates). That cam used with heavy valves is a bad match. It was a poor choice of mismatched valvetrain parts which ended up being a costly experience on my end.

Another thing, please be more specific on the rest of the valvetrain for better, more accurate responses. The cam along with every piece of the valvetrain needs to work as a system to be very effective and longer lasting.
