Cam suggestions for DD/3600 stall I've always wanted a cam only car and I'm finally at the point where I can install one. I had my eye on the tsp 233/239 and planned on installing it along with a FAST intake but I'm starting to think that it might be a bit too big for my stall. I've come to the conclusion that I can have a solid set up with a smaller cam and the LS6 intake that's already on the car. I'm all about efficiency being that my car is stalled and the dyno numbers won't look too pretty. Would a torquer v3 with my LS6 be a better bet? I drive my car everyday and any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks
The tv3 is a good cam but it has a very aggressive intake lobe and will be hard on springs so i wouldnt recommend it for a daily. I would suggest something like the tv2. It will make almost the same power but the intake in ground on a much easier lobe. In this situation maybe get with Geoff or Martin and have a cam spec'd by them
The 228/232 cam is pretty damn nice for a daily. Several different vendors could hook you up, but customer service with Martin at Tick Performance is second to none.

I agree! Martin is the go to man for a cam.
I run Ed Curtis' streetsweeper ht which is a 228/232 in my car with a 3600 stall and 3.73s, and it can easily be daily driven. Its not too big where its a headache to drive or not too small where you wish you went bigger. He is a great guy to deal with and I highly recommend you talk to him.

That Streetsweeper HT is a pretty bad *** little cam. I know Spartan Motorsports has their own 228/232 cam that has made great power and runs it's *** off at the track. OP, you can't go wrong with Martin or Ed Curtis. I've dealt with both and they are both at the top off the LS world.

That streetsweeper cam looks like a good sized cam. I'll get in contact with the names above for sure. Hopefully I make a good decision when I pull the trigger
