yes my old cam did not pull as much on the top end but show me someone else who pulled even close to my 60 330 or 1/8 mile times...

it is a trade off...you should know that...no one said the 230 cam was going to make more peak than a trex 24x cam...

reverse splits have there place...and the el torro is barely a RS just in ramp rates...

I have a 900 hp NA 62 catalina that runs 123 in the 1/8 and 150 1/4 thats 27 mph in the back half,and you think this little 346 back half is weak?

25-30mph backends are pretty standard in all but the fastest cars and a lot of the turbo drag radial stuff. It's not really a HP thing.

I never said your car wasn't impressive, I just don't feel that cam was optimal.

Well i have a ms3 that i am getting rid of to get the el-torro but with alittle more exhaust duration so i can do heads and make better power. Its all about the set up and what your goals are for your car that matters. Chris's car f-ing moves and i dont care what anyone else says. He has it set up right and it does what he wants.

PIB I usually agree with you but that was one of the the most impressive cam only cars on here. All the more so because of small it was....Yeah more cam, gear, stall yada it would have gone faster but for what it was it hauled the bacon....

Haha, thanks man but I don't like that vid. When I get one where I actually launch the car maybe I'll post it. I've been playing with my roll bar camera mount so maybe I'll post one soon.

Yep, I'm so wrong that I have 230 duration cams in mid >high 10s and 427 lbs of trq by 3500rpm.
Say hello to Brett for me, you are inputing zero tech, just regurjutating someone elses falacy.
Cam design is not all about peak Hp or peak rpm. That is what sells.

my car is still untuned, but so far its seems to run fairly strong compared to other modded / cammed ls1's.

wow so many different poinsts of view...
if i wanted this el orro cam... how or where can i get it.. what springs should be uses ???

this X1 cam looks nice also/// who sells it????

get a hold of predator Z and find out from him who to get it from cause i think it's on different lobes than most performance vendors use

Here are the latest results on another "El Toro"

https://ls1tech.com/forums/13141776-post1.html

The specs at .050 are:

Intake lobes 3016R (XFI)
Exhaust lobe 3725R (XER)
111 LSA
109 ICL

No they are comp cams lobes like 99% of vendors seem to use.

right after i posted i wondered if i was wrong or right and apparently i was wrong, thank you for clearing it up

I was explained in my post right after yours specs are online. There are other 230/230 grinds on the market, mine uses 2 different types of lobes, that is what makes it a Reverse split.

i know i'd be using this cam but it wont work as well as a 224/236 cam will for my build or so i'm told. any input???????????

PM me your full info, I'll give you my suggestion

That would be a great cam on a +3 with as early an ICL as your octane will allow. Don't let Pred talk you out of it.

done

Why don't you talk about it here out in the open?

That is between me and King Nothing, if he wishes he can divulge his side in a separate thread.
