Magic stick? anyone have it? Impressions?
Magic stick? anyone have it? Impressions? Just curious how many people have the magic stick 1. I have it in the new motor being built and i'm just wondering if it was the right choice? Any impressions people have off it would be appreciated. Power, rpm range, shift points, driveability, etc etc. By the way this is going in my daily driver m6 Vette with TSP race heads.
Thanks
Thanks
Magic stick is a cam that tsp makes.
Also a side note I know streetability is all relative and such but I want info as far as idle, surging, and low end power and such. I had 231/237 and that was great i was really hoping for more power and shake though and thats why i went with magic stick.

there aren't many people with this cam... ... nice cam for some serious top end power... I've seen it in many cars... almost swapped it into my car... but decided to stay with my 231/237 until I upgrade to a stroker... driveability will be similar to the 231/237 ... a little rougher... but if the 231/237 didn't bother you at all in your daily driver then i think you will be very happy with the magic stick.. what gears are you running?? you will need some pretty steep gears.. which I'm sure you probably already have..

Ok guys, I have to ask a question here. We now have the T-REX, the Texas Giant, and the Magic Stick. This marketing crap has got to stop, it is getting incredibly silly. Before long we're going to have the Texas Two-Step (made by Harlan), the Velocity-Raptor cam, Prestidigi-cam.
I'm not going to buy a camshaft or advise anyone else to do so when these companies are so obviously crossing the BS
marketing boundaries. Anyone who buys a "magic" cam without knowing exactly what they are buying is incredibly foolish.

anyone that buys a cam without knowing the specs or doing some reserach I think should definatly not be buying a cam at all...
someone that is interested in TSP's magic stick knows what they are getting
I can't comment on the other two cams.. I don't know anythihng about them.. they came out after the magicstick was first initially thought up..

for the most part i know cartek doesnt i know mikey hasnt given the specs out on the cam that made over 500 to the wheels in the 346, um ttp's equilizer cam...im sure there are others
i just put it in my ta, you will need to flycut your piston for that cam. 
Magic Stick = 237/242
Magic Stick Rev 2 = 239/244
Torquer = 233/233
We have nothing to hide We will never make a camshaft and then expect ANYBODY to buy it without knowing the specs. That's a little like buying a car without knowing which motor it has. And yes, these are not cams that we will recommend to just anybody. Both magic stick really need valve reliefs, and the average customer I talk to each day does NOT want to cut their pistons. Happy motoring
