I love the cam myself. I'm not sure what all you want described, its just like a TR224/224 but has about 5rwhp more at the topend. It idles great if you get a 114lsa. If you want it to sound lopey you'll need to get it on a 112lsa.

Here's a dyno I have against a 2001 Z06. I have GTP heads, the TR227/224 cam, and an underdrive pulley. The exhaust is bone stock from heads to tail.

Thanks for your reply. See that's what I don't understand. I know your car is a C5 with stock cats and through the ZO6 Exhaust. Do you have longtubes? It just doesn't make since with that one guy with the 227/224 ZO6 stock head car put 420rwhp down. I dunno. Thanks for the reply.

No, like I said, my exhaust is stock. Can't have stock exhaust with longtubes can ya? Stock manifolds, stock cats, stock mufflers. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

I've not seen many, if any, heads/cam cars make more power N/A through stock manifolds.

Damn, now that's impressive. I wonder what kind of exhaust it would like more of a true dual or like a large 4" mufflex type. I'm ready for the change I think. How much are your heads milled? Also how much piston to valve clearance do you have or do you know?
