Trak cam or custom spec'd cam????
Trak cam or custom spec'd cam???? So ive think about swappin a bigger cam into my car. I was really leaning towards a patrick g speced cam but i came across a really good deal on a Trak cam with less than 1k miles on it. Specs on car and engine below
89 gtu rx-7 weighs right at 3000 with me in it
01 ls1 stock bottom end
patriot 243 heads
patriot 225/229 cam
ls7 lifters and comp push rods
1 5/8 long tubes, 3in true duals xr-1 mufflers
6 speed with ls7 clutch
turbo II rearend with 4.10 gears
the car is a daily driver but gets maybe 150 miles a week. its pulls real hard right just want alittle more. lookin for advice from the cam experts, or anyone running a similar cam in a light car

What kind of rpms are we talking about?
Here's my suggestion from Cam Motion
C33-794 LS Hydraulic Roller Camshaft; 232'/236', .629"/.629", 113'+4'; 2,400 to 6,400 RPM
Or if you are looking for a tad more rpm:
C33-784 LS Hydraulic Roller Camshaft; 236'/240', .629"/.629", 113'+4'; 2,800 to 6,800 RPM
Cam Motion lobes make power

rev limiter is set a 6800 right now and i usually shift at 6600. after the cam change prob gonna bump the rev limiter to 7k though. i have a friend with the first cam you referred to and his car runs really strong, but if i dont get the trak cam im prob gonna get a custom cam.
