I would not go any smaller then the TR 224/224 .563/.563 on 112 I already wish that I had gone bigger, but you will need tuning with that

The biggest cam you can put in it without tuning will most likely be a 02 Z06 cam. Anything bigger and its gonna have trouble with cold/hot starts and finding idle. Plus you can probably find a used Z06 cam pretty cheap either here or on the corvette forums.

-Vids went out for you two.

-As for 114, just call TSP, they'll grind it I'm sure.
-918's were recommended by TSP.

Where are you? If all goes according to plan my TSP goes in this coming weekend.

The biggest cam you can put in it without tuning will most likely be a 02 Z06 cam. Anything bigger and its gonna have trouble with cold/hot starts and finding idle.
Absolutely false. With proper tuning you can get that cam to behave just fine with "cold/hot starts" no problem. I've done it on a similar sized cam with a higher lift . . . and I'll do it on mine as well

Default Re: Just Installed... TSP231/237 Cam

FYI, the cam can be had on a 114 LSA if so desired. I've sprayed a 225 HP shot on the 231/237 on the 112 LSA with no problems. It LOVES nitrous. I consistently pick up 1.4-1.45 seconds on a 150 HP shot. You'll be fine spraying the camshaft on a 112 LSA.

Let me know if you have any other questions.

Thanks!

Update:
I've been driving this thing around now for 2 days and have nothing but praise for its daily driveablilty (the fact that the idle was set at 1000 rpms helps alot I think). Runs fine with AC. Finds idle quickly after hot starts.
It's running really rich right now on the C1 tune.
Power is non-existent before 2500rpms, but from there on it pulls like a mad bull, with plenty of torque on tap from 2500.
I'll report back in a few weeks after the tune.

must put credit card away!!!! must have self control!


trevor, on mysetup, how much power do you think i am leaving on the table running a tr224 112 with my direct port? i calculate that its probably making 575-600 rwhp now on a 150 shot. im changing to a 9 inch in a week or 2 and then a th350 or 400 after that. do you think this cam has 9 sec potential?

With tuning you should get your power back under the 2500 curve
The Cam sounds interesting,might try it in the future.
