Default Cam question

I have stock LS6 243s, Cometic .040, kooks with hi-flow cats 3" to the back, LS6 intake, with a TSP228R 114LSA 405RWHP 373RWTQ.
How much will I gain with a TSP V2 233/239 on 112LSA .598 and .603 lift?

Honestly dude you're probably going to get the most accurate answer by calling Texas Speed and speaking with them directly, seeing as how it's their cam. More than likely they can provide you with the best information on your specific setup... and they could also spec a custom grind for your specific application. Just my .02

I dont think that you are going to see that big of a gain. This might help you, make sure to compair the power under the curve and not just peak power.https://ls1tech.com/forums/generatio...mparision.htmlIf it were me I would save the $350 from the new cam and put it towards a set of prc heads from tsp

Thanks for the replies. Is the torque low for my setup or normal? I'm really looking to bring my torque closer to 400

That might be holding some of your tq, but heads will get you to the 400+rwtq mark.
