Default Polluter v2?

Has anyone here ran the polluter v2 cam from Tick? I've search & look up on tech always came across HP numbers & cant find any other information far as how well it performs at the track or if anyone ran into PTV clearance 853 heads or 243s? & also if anyone spraying 100-150 shot?

It is a max effort camshaft, and it is designed to work with stock heads with no PTV issues.

That being said, you will need all the supporting mods to reap the benefits of a cam that big.

Most off the shelf n/a type cams are going to respond similar to a small shot of nitrous like that

Trap speeds vary, but for the most part most full weight F-bodies pull 116-120mph depending on the ability of the driver, rear gear ratio, tires, clutch, suspension etc.

Most full weight C5 Corvette's will trap 118-122mph with the above listed variables, some have been as fast as 123-124mph in great air.

I have had a few C6 LS2 customers trap 126mph with this cam.

All the MPH numbers above are in "cam only" trim.

For this cam to be optimized in a track vehicle, a 4000+ rpm stall should be utilized and I'd prefer a 4400+. 3.90 gears or lower with an auto and 4.10 or lower with a 6 speed.

If you have a 6 speed, be prepared to have to launch your car at 4500-5500rpm or even higher to achieve the best 60' times with this camshaft. As a member above said, "It's a max effort camshaft for stock bottom end LS1/LS6 engines and all the required supporting mods are required to run well."
