Long story short had #7 ring go in my motor and im having a fresh rebuilt shortblock go in so i figure while its out would be the perfect time to upgrade the heads and cam. Im going with ai 226cc ls6 heads and possibly one of their cams as well but was also thinking about possibly going with something like a tick or eps cam. Car is an m6 and will be my daily driver since im being stationed in hawaii and can only have one car shipped also there isn't a track on the island i will be on which sucks. In my other car i had afr 205's and a 230/234 111+2 lsa cam on xfi/xer lobes and it had pretty good street manners for a daily but i really wouldn't go bigger then that.

You answered your own question. AI spec'ed cam or Martin at Tick Performance.

Or PatrickG, or Geoff Skinner for an EPS.

I guess what im really wondering is would it be better to go with something like ai's 226/234 cam or ticks sns stage 2 227/235 or maybe get ai to do a 230/234 cam for me

I would go with them because they know what works best with their heads and since its your DD for awhile, their cams are easy on the valvetrain.

I made great power with their off the shelf 226/230 grind. 460 in an ls1 with their 799s

I had the AI 226 heads and custom AI cam.. made 475/430 to the rear m6 trans.

Thats good power mchicia for such a small cam. You running a fast intake or have the heads milled or anything?

Djfury i have seen your build thread and the results were impressive with track times to back it up. The cam you used is a little bigger then i want to go though

Yes, this was with a fast 90/ls2 throttle body and the heads were milled to 60cc chambers.

If I had to do that setup again, I would mill even more and also use a cometic gasket. It would have hit over 470 with that and that mild cam!

That car ran well too, trapped 125+ on street tires with my crappy driving. Easily was a 128-129+ trap car with a real driver and tires.

That 230/234 isn't a bad cam. You had a lot of overlap with it on a 111. If you're going with Ai, you could have a similar cam spec'd but you can ease up the LSA a bit and get compression back by milling the heads.

Yeah im thinking of going with a cam that size or the 226/234 cam they offer
