Default LPE Cams

GTP2-5. Anybody have this cam? It's a 222/222 .570/.570 with a 112. I don't hear too much about these cams so I am a little hesitant. Thanks.

I am sorry I didn't include my intentions. I would like something to give me close to 400 hp and still be driveable. I drive my car everyday, but I don't drive it hard all of the time. I am going to go with Lt's and 918's with boltons. In relation I am comparing this to a TR224 with a 112. How are the number s with the LPE cam.

well then why not justs get the tr224 112, thats already a proven performer and it beats looking around for results of a cam that you said yourself theres little information on.

Becuase there is a $200 difference and if I can save that much on the cam I can spend it on something else. It's not like Lingenfelter isn't a proven name.

Do you mean without the heads? I think that's what you alluding to, but just making sure. How is the cam as far as idle? Thanks.
