El torro + heads
Hey everyone,
I'm thinking of going with the el torro cam (230/230 .612/.592 111+2) but I'm undecided on heads. My first choice was the prc stg 2.5 5.3 heads (mainly cause of $) and the second is the stg 2.5 ls6 heads.
Which do you guys think will work better with this cam? I'm a little fearful ill get the 5.3 and be disappointed lol.
Also with either head what small tweaks would you guys recommend to the cam specs to maximize the gains?
On a lid/LT/TD/ls6 intake car if that info helps.
Thanks!

i believe the el torro was spec'd for cam only setups. You may be happier if you choose heads first then match the cam specs (or tweaks)
It doesnt sound like you could go wrong with any of those heads. Its all based on personal preference.

I plan on running ported 241s with my eltorro cam. I talked to predator z and he suggested to keep my 241s to have a 220cc intake runner. Ill also be runnin stock vavles.
Im pretty sure it was mostly a cam only as stated above^

If you are going to do cam only, I recommend to stay a no split cam 230/230 111+2.
I you are going to add heads, I then prefer 2 more degrees duration on exhaust to facilitate gases exiting 230/232 111+3
This is a good all around street/strip cam.
If you want a more strip oriented cam (not full drag but more strip), the I would recommend his big brother
236/236 .615/.602 111+0 LSA, this cam is lethal with 14* overlap, equidistand IVO/EVC from TDC (meaning it will carry to the moon after peak), yet 49 EVO for good mid range trq.
Mind you this cam is tight on PTV but will fit with stock heads. That is the biggest cam I would install without flycutting.
