Im planning to buy a cam but can't get ahold of TSP
 
I've been looking at cam's from different places and I see a lot of people running tsp's cams and they are also cheaper then a lot of others. But anytime I call I get a busy signal any day any time. I don't want to spend a ton of money with a company I can never get ahold of if I have a problem. Is there anybody else someone recommends that will answer the phone? Im looking for a cam similar to the 228R.

This, plenty of vendors pick up their phones, don't chase people to give them your money. That being said, I have personally never had trouble getting in touch with TSP.

my friend has had the same problem its hit or miss with tsp either they get real busy or they answer the phone... thats what we ran into.

I just ran into it with another vendor that I won't mention, but I ended up buying my cam from Futral instead of the other shop.

yea.. i know companies get busy but you would think that the phone is priority if you are a legit company...and im sure it doesnt stop ringing... but why is that a bad thing???? oh well what can you do lol

TSP has some of the best prices around but it doesn't do any good when you can't get a hold of them. We tried calling (same problem as you) so we emailed as well trying to get a price for cam/gasket package for this 6.0 and never got a response. Martin stepped up for my friend though and got everything out 2 days later...everything was great so I can't complain. Hopefully we can get this thing to Vengeance here next week and get it tuned for some results on Martin's new cam.

munn79ta 04-12-2013 02:54 PM

agreed!!!!!! what cam did you guys get?

Call Martin @ tickperformance (336)719-0599 he'll square you away.

Martin is super responsive.

With that said, I haven't had any issues with TSP.

Geoff at EPS is also great.

We are extremely busy with other customers on the phone, its not that we don't want to answer the phone or we are ignoring any customers. If you get the time continue to try and call, or send an email or pm. We want to help our customers, we are just extremely busy. I understand its frustrating but we are here to help if anyone needs some assistance don't hesitate to send me an email or pm. My email is Aaron@Texas-Speed.com, I apologize for any inconvenience.

Sorry, had a wedding this weekend and didn't get a chance to reply. It was IIRC the TorqueMax Stage 1 LS2 cam. Engine build went together super smooth so we're hoping for good numbers. After machining pistons were out .0065 and the heads were milled just enough to straighten the deck...70cc I believe. Final compression was 10.78:1 I believe with a 4.060 gasket and 4.030 bore. Just a budget build but hoping it makes great power. Martin was superb to deal with from what I was told.
