Default TR230 in a 6.0L
Hey Everyone.

How would a TR230 cam perform in a 6.0L motor?

230/224 - .575/.583 111LSA.

Im aiming for 400rwhp, with a LS6 intake, stock 317 heads, T56, 1 3/4" headers, CAI, catback, ORY etc.

How would this cam perform in the larger cubed setup?

Thanks!

True.

I heard from patrick G that a TR230 in a 5.3L would act like it has 4* more duration. Wasnt sure if a 6.0L would make it act like it had a couple * less?
