I don't care about ruff idle as long as it is streetable, i want to be able to drive it every day without trouble
It is a COMP CAM
216 / 220 .525 / .532 114 LSA

Also will i need springs with this cam, what kind and other things????

How cheap?,ive got one that has .540" lift and im not happy. soon im going with at least .588 .Im an a4. My vote is no. I dont think .525 is enough. Alot of cams are .570 .580 etc... Thats seems small to me. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" />

But ,,,im pretty sure you could drive that cam everyday and not change springs or anything, and still see an improvement. I would also wait to see other opinions. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" />

Boo Yeah

how deos $50 bucks sound?? I was thinking, for 50 it is atleast a cam, i jsut don't know if he will take that much

Boo Yeah

he might want more than that but i figure under 150 and it is a good deal right?

Boo Yeah

what is a cam like this new?? 400? It is new and still in the box

bdawg/98mechamta#9

Sh*t for that price you cant go wrong! I think they"re $339ish new. And hey its way better than the 205/212 .540" the builder put in my car. If you just want improved performance , not the most possible, <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> go for it!

Boo Yeah

what kind of power do you think??
Also i think this will be easy to tune in, I am fixing to see him he is coming over and i am setting my limit at 175.

Not worth the trouble to install it, IMO. I wouldn't go through the hassle for anything less than a 224/224. I don't think you'll be happy with it and you'll want to change it again soon.

You WILL need to change springs for that cam. I have a friend with a cam almost like that one. He is running 01 LS6 springs with no problems at all.

Boo Yeah

well, i am saving for a turbo kit, so it will be awhile for other mods, and i am going to put a ls6 manifold on and replace my pushrods (damn misshifts) anyways, so i don't think it will be that hard to install since i am taking the heads off and everything anyways?????
I just want to know what kind of power, i really wasn't planning on getting a cam but he sold his car today, it wasn't forsale and now he has this and i know he got it a while back and probably can't return it

I'm with QuickWS6. That cam is too small for the effort, no matter what it costs. Save up a little, and go with a real cam <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

I wouldn't expect a big increase. If I were you, I would wait and get a turbo cam.

Boo Yeah

Well, i want to change the valve train anyways, Also when i go with a turbo kit i will get a new set of heads, but for now since it looks like it will be a year and a half or more, i want to have the heads milled, and put nitrous on the car so i want to make sure everything it sturdy before i do that. So that is why i am pulling the heads

The 9" should be finished up tomorrow night. I'm taking it back up to Scott so he can throw in a 4.22 gear. The 3.89 is just a little too small for what I need. If everything gets finished in time, I'll ride up and dyno.
