New cams from Tick Performance
Hey justin, can you put some results of the cam once you get it installed, are you planning to have it Dyno tuned?

Of course I'm having it Dyno tuned, and yes I will post graphs & Idle vids. BUT....We still have another month of snow, so timing of installation & Dyno is a big ? hopefully asap.
My cam has badass midrange and will straight up **** up any similar modded car at the track while being full weight.
A lot of people have an issue with the way cams idle, Especially the older generation, Keep in mind I'm only 19, So my definition of "streetable" differs from others. But Having owned about 6-7 different cams in different LS motors throughout my life, (It might be my setup), but this is one of the TAMEST cams i have driven.

Your car always impressed me with the time its able to run for what it dyno'd and with your gear, weight, low compression and from what you have said lightly ported heads. I still think with a little work to the 60 foot and 330 you can go low 11's and damn near 7.0 in the eighth. You already went 7.40's at 94mph iirc. Goes to show dynos and autos dont agree.
I've got a buddy with a bad *** ls2 in a 3400-3500lb. 3rd gen, tfs as cast heads, 235/243 112+3 cam, fast intake with a stalled auto and it made 420ish rwhp locked, but runs 6.90's@99mph with a 1.5x 60'.
Did you not need valve springs, push rods, timing chain, oil pump and gaskets/bolts for the install also? We can make it a one stop shop if you wish!

Im expecting it to run low 12's as it sits but my future plan is sending my 243's in to AI for their 226cc program and get the compression closer to 12:1, possibly a new cam and get a intake that i am still undecided on since most intakes you will lose torque down low!
Overall goal is 11.50's NA which i know is possible! Which cam would you recommend if i were to make a swotch? Bottom line this truck HAS to 60" 1.57-1.61 NA to achieve my goals.
