Default Pick a new cam.

The hotcam has worked well in my car as it's ran 120 traps, but it could be time for something else. I was thinking about maybe going with the ASA hotcam with it's added duration. I am also looking at the TR 227/224 on a 112 since I have to have a lope out of a cam. I want this new cam to clear with no doubt my stock valved heads milled .035" so what's it gonna be?

I am going forced induction, but were I not Brian, I'd be trying the Thunder 230/224 cam.

Brian, when I had the 6.0L heads on my car I didn't have any problems with that cam and mine were milled .035"

Allen tell me about that cam man. Make me wanna get one. Also tell me your specs. Are they on a 114 or 112? Also did you order a shelf cam with +4 ground in or a custom?

I ordered the off the shelf one. Probably had one of the first ones out of the door as they didn't even have the 230 yet. I don't have my cam card on me so I'm not sure what the exact specs came out to. Mine's a 114 lsa.

Can't give you any numbers on it yet, but my car seems pretty quick. Of course, I'm running 2.73 gears and the yank 3000 converter so it really wouldn't compare as well to yours. It still seems strong to me even with my gears/converter combo.
