why not...sounds like they went with more lift to better take advantage of the flow #'s of most aftermarket heads at the top end .500-.600 lift but still keep a driveable and possibly emissions friendly cam

Sounds like some great things coming out from u guys with these new cams.

mshadow

I was hoping to see a slightly smaller version of the 231/237 cam come out maybe same lift but a little less duration.

The new cams look nice tho.

SideStep

I think they still sale a 231/231 .588 .112/.114 lsa cam. I am going to call Jason tomorrow and make sure...

Are the LS6 heads you mentioned above, LS6 casting or 6.0L casting with the chambers redone??? Plus is there a core charge?

2.08 intake valves on a 346? is that a first?

Some have done it before with not much success. The larger valve shrouds the combustion chamber forcing it directly into the cylinder wall instead of allowing it to dispurse in a efficent manner. If these heads are designed to work like they state they are, this should be interesting.

The 239/244, ha what a baby cam for a girlie man!

Ok, gimme a shot at it with the heads, make mine small chamber for some mad compression. As long as I dont have to flycut I would be happy.

The reason I keep asking this question over and over is because I have a Lunati stroker with 2.02 valves. I am going to be switching to 2.055 I THINK. Talking to my tuner and head porter, and they both have said exactly what you said which is the reason I originally went with 2.02 intake valves.

I have posted that question on many LG threads and several other threads before but everyone acts like its a big secret. I am just trying to figure out if going to 2.055 valves is worth any power. Now I am even thinking about 2.08 based on this thread.

Is this some sort of secret? I would love to know what LG and Cartek etc are running or if there is any tricks to the setup.

THAT is exactly what I wanted to hear! I have $$ burning a hole in my pocket for a bigger cam! I'll look for it and be in touch soon.

We have tried 2.02", 2.055", and 2.08" intake valves, and the 2.08" valves picked up flow another 7 cfm from .200" lift on up. This was tested on a 3.90" bore on the SuperFlow 1020 bench, too, not a larger bore such as a 4.03" or 4.06" like some test on. We're running the 2.08" intake valves on our '99 C5, and we'll be running them on our '02 SS as well.

The cylinder heads start life as bare, unmachined LQ9 cylinder heads. The chambers are welded up, sent to Canfield Cylinder heads for heat treating and final machining, and then they're sent back for porting and polishing. All of the prices are for the cylinder heads outright, so there is no core charge! You get to keep your stock cylinder heads for a decorative paper weight.

We do offer a 231/231, .598", .598", 112 or 114 LSA if you're not wanting the added exhaust duration. We are also working on a cam a little smaller than that for those looking for something between the 228R and the 231/231 or 231/237. However, it will be another month or so before we have them in our hands. We have a lot of cams in development that are not off-the-shelf lobes from Comp Cams or Lunati!

As for the TSP225, we did design this camshaft for the person looking for a more docile setup. The smaller duration will allow the cam to be VERY streetable without toop much lope, and it will also help to pass emissions with the correct LSA! The higher lift will allow the heads and camshaft to have a better synergistic gain since it will be taking added advantage of the additional head flow. It's not too high, though, to keep someone from installing it with stock cylinder heads.

Keep the questions coming! We're here to help.

Will you guys be offering any kind of exchange basis on these heads? I just ordered my PP LS6 59cc heads. They arent even on the motor yet. When will you be offering these heads? Right now or in a week or two?

DG Gordon

I wonder how all this will work with a 396 stroker? Also which cam is recomended that will give decent idle plus gobs of power.
I hope Gomer is reading this because if not he will be falling behind!

2.05 valves will be fine. Obviouslly from what jason is saying, they have been having good luck with a 2.08 also.

SideStep

Trevor,

We talked three weeks ago about a 2001 C5/6sp/coupe. I don't expect you to remember, I know you get hundreds of calls a week. I am ready to spend some money. Looks like I am interested in your stage II LS6/LQ9 heads with the 231/231 cam on a .114 lsa. What size combustion chamber for 93 octane and street driving, mostly weekends? Have you tried this setup on a C5 yet, and what were the results????

(current mods in sig...)
Thanks,

Jason 98 TA

Trust me we've done alot of testing with the bigger valves on the 3.900 bore sizes. So far we've been really happy with both the 2.055 valve & 2.08 valves in these all out heads. The heads will be available with either valve configurations so guys that don't want a 2.08 valve will be able to stay with the base 2.055 valve. The exhaust side features a 1.60 valve that flows up to 18cfm better than the 1.57 valves did in the mid lift numbers! The 1.60 exhaust valve only picked up about 5cfm up top but it was well worth it in the mid lift numbers. Look for a complete flow sheet soon guys

As far as camshafts, we have tons of cams to pick from
TSP218 218/218 .580 .580 Truck cam/sleeper cam
TSP225 225/225 .595 .595
TSP229 229/229 .595 .595 *in testing
TSP231 231/231 .598 .598
TSP231.237 231/237 .598 .595
*others coming in this area
Magic Stick Rev.2 239/244 .625 .635
244/252 .635 .650

Matt or Jason, I e-mailed Brian about this cam and when I could get one ordered. Could one of you check with him and you or him to get back with me. Thanks, Jason
