RapTR Cam/Ported 243's Combo Reviews
Hey Guys,
I'm looking to get a Heads and Cam Combo. I was looking at the Thunder Racing RapTR Cam- 236/242 -.615/.615 -111 lsa. I'm also wanting to go with a set of ported 243 heads with this cam. I was wondering what numbers people have seen with this combo. If not with this specific combo what numbers have people seen with this in a cam only setup. Also I'm wanting to know If Fly Cutting the stock pistons is needed for this cam. My car is mostly a Weekend Warrior but i still would like to know how street friendly this cam is. I appreciate all Input and Feedback. Thanks

That camshaft is very similar to the Tsunami so we should be able to build you a set of PRC CNC Ported Stage 2.5 LS6 heads to clear. I'd expect the heads & camshaft could easily pickup 100hp.

Here is a link to one of customers cars with the RapTR cam and stock heads:

There is no flycutting necessary with stock cylinder heads. As far as cylinder heads go, are you looking for a budget head or something like a TFS head. Here is a link with this cam and a set of TFS 215 heads. This was through a 9" and full exhaust:

Call me at the shop or pm me and I can get you setup with what you need

Well my heads are stock 243's just with 2.05 intakes. I know when I spoke with the folks there they said it would be close because I have .40 Cometics too. I know the TRex is supposed to fit too without PTV problems but people check and it has .050/.050 or they tap the piston tops. So how low can you go really?
The RapTR could fit with your setup but I don't know for sure. If you could compare your valve drop with stock, I could tell you.
Thanks,
Shane

The RapTR has MUCH more clearance than the TRex does. They are cut on two completely different lobes.
