many out there using this cam.. may want to try a search, its possible you you may not get too many responses because it has been discussed a lot..

My experience is I have a friend with a TV2 and Stg 1 LS6s, M6, 4.10 12 bolt. Its power starts around 3k give or take. Dont get me wrong its fun and feels good, however off idle it is a dog. TBH its an older shelf cam that will give you a nice improvement but more could likely be had from a smaller custom grind from someone such as EPS.. good luck

Yea I know.. I've been doing a lot of reading about it a lot of mixed stuff I bought the v2 from a guy on cl new for 250 I thought it would go good with my set up but now I'm second guessing if I got 2 big a cam for what I'm running

243 hand ported heads
Bbk intake also hand ported
And full custom exuast but my spring are only rated to .600 Max from my previous can and there only comp 215s not sure if it will work.. I wanna start my rebuild tread but I wanna make sure I got all the stuff I need

ive heard of dyno #'s being anywhere from 375-420 on this cam (cam only).. granted every dyno is different.

I upgraded to the newer LS6 intake manifold, Lontube headers, and true duals.. thats about it..
I also have 4.10 gears, but that affects peak power on the dyno
