Default Camshaft Help

2002 Camaro SS, Procharger P1-SC, Kooks long tubes, no cats, HP Tuners, 8lbs boost, stock motor, 6 speed. Thinking of the Brute Speed EPP cam? What all do I need? Lifters, pushrods, trunion upgrade? Let me know. Bob, you in here?

might just as well call Bob. He can prolly set you up with everything you need
Recent reports are to steer clear of the roller trunions and run the bronze bushing kits. I just did a set with a kit from that company in Ohio and they worked fantastic.
Don't forget a new LS2 timing chain or if your factory gears have a bunch of miles on them you could run the Pro Gear set from Avon products. Great quality for under a "Franklin"
A nice ported factory oil pump adds piece of mind...............

Pushrods, valvesprings and a new timing chain set are what I recommend. These are all options in my camshaft link.

The trunnion kit is not totally reliable, I would skip it. Thanks. Bob

The trunnion bushing kits seem to be proving themselves.
