So i have been looking around and i saw these 4 cams that got in my head that i really like. Idk which one to choose i really want the biggest cam i can get for the stock bottem end and stock heads. Help!!!

Tsp Torquer V2 232/234 .595/.598 112 lsa
F14 Cam 232"/234" .598"/.598" 112LSA
F15 Cam 236"/239" .640"/.612" 111LSA
Vindicator Cam 240/244 .695/.596 112 lsa

LS1 has CAI,longtubes,2 highflow cats and x pipe. Other than that it is completely stock. Thanks.

Man, it's crazy how many of these posts start the same way, without any contextual information.

Brother, we need to know what kind of vehicle it's going in. Car, truck, boat, submarine? Manual or automatic? What stall and gears?

Finally, what do you plan to use it for? Drag racing, autocross, badass daily driver, a bit of all three?

Its going in a 91 C1500 5 speed for now but getting a t56 later. right now it has a 10bolt with 4.10s. Its going to be used as a badass daily driver and drags every once and while. thanks!

Ive heard the f13/14 is one of the best cams you can buy for a stock cube ls1 but bigger isnt always better. The best advice someone could give you is to get in contact with one of our sponsors i.e. Martin @ Tick, TSP, Brian Tooley, or FMS and they can set you up with an off the shelf cam of a custom grind to fit your build and needs. If your serious about buying a cam pick up thr phone and talk to the pros!

If you don't plan on working the heads or intake, etc...then you don't want something too big. It will actually be slower in many cases

the TSP torquer v3 is a little better then the torquer 2. .consider a ed curtis street sweeper also.tick has been producing some good cams .

Alright ill give em a call and see whats up! I'm actually planning to get some heads later on as well as an intake. But since money is tight right now im just looking for a cam at the moment.

Check out the F13

The truck might be a bit heavy for the StreetSweeper cam...

You should get heads first before a cam. Chances are you get one of those cams, then later on bolt on a set of worked 243's or 241's and youll get drug by a car with a better combo just my opinion though. Been there done that

For a truck with a T56 I would highly recommend the SNS Stage 1 LS1 camshaft. It is 223/231 .610"/.617" 110+2 and makes plenty of torque to get that heavy truck moving.

I think the cams you have listed so far will make big dyno numbers, but would lose to a smaller cam on the street.

Thanks. What would i need to get the SNS stage 2 cam? I think i might be interested.

Well, the Stage 2 SNS cam IMO for your set-up would need more compression for such a heavy truck.

That said, what does a 91 C1500 weigh?

91ls1silverado

It weighs 5000 pounds. Its a single cab.

Turbo.

If it weighs 5000lbs. then my recommendation is the Stage 1 SNS cam or more compression and the Stage 2 SNS cam.

--not the OP, but how does one get more compression?

Mill heads or thinner head gaskets.

Ok I think ill mill the heads and get the SNS stage 2. Thanks Martin ill probably give you a call within the next week to order the cam.
