after talking to a couple guys I think I know what kind of a cam I need my car is a 1974 mgb weighs 2200 lbs I have a 4.8 stock lower end rebuilt new bearings and rings my heads are 862 and I relapped the valves in I am running a edelbrock 600 cfm carb I was told to look for a 224/228 112lsa and stay under .600 lift now I have been looking for this and I can't find it with those numbers can anybody help me out with maybe a part number or what you think I should have thank you very much and also I would like her to be lumpy at idle and what about that ls6 cam I see it is pretty cheap thanks again

 

A cam with Carb setup is a little different.call one of the sponsors with experience in carb ls1 applications

 

It would be hard to give you a good cam recommendation since you have such a unique and different setup from the majority here. Give Texas Speed, Martin at Tick, Geoff at EPS a call, they all can give you a cam that will match your setup and goals.

 

I had the 224/228 @ 112 from texas speed in my LS1, I would go with a 228/232 or also called the Torquer v2 @ 112. It all depends on how radical you want to get

 

thank you guys

 

i have the ls6 cam 2002 and it has zero lope , you cant tell i have a cam it runs like stock. wish i'd gone bigger. tr224 is a daily driver / good street manors cam. what are your goals? then call the suggested companies above. reminder you always have to upgrade your springs with a bigger cam. i have ls6 springs and wish i'd gone better. cheers ps could you tell us if you have auto or manual trans? gears? stall? this is an ls1 motor correct? daily driver or street / strip? thx

 

hey dano I have the ls 4.8 in a 74 MGB 2 seater rag top weighs 2200 I have a turbo 350 auto with no stall 390 gears in the rear end I want a lopey idle as far as power this thing is so quick now because of it being so light and the gearing so any power increase is awesome but I am not focused on it I want to know there is a cam in it I also am running a carb a lot less wiring I love it thanks

 

You can get a TSP 220/220 cam with a 111lsa, or have them do a custom grind with a 110 or 109lsa. IMO, with no stall upgrade a 220/220 is as big as I would go.
