yeah i think that 231/237 should compliment my setup very well.

 

what difference will lsa make on this cam?

 

The lower the LSA, the chopier the idle, and the lower the power band moves. Stock cam's LSA is something like a 119. Most A4 guys try to stick it out in the 114 range because of the auto. You M6 guys seem to like the 112's a lot. In general, the higher the LSA, the more even tempered the cam. The lower the LSA, the meaner the cam. Similar power in the end, it's just a personality thing for the most part.

 

while at tsp i asked about a cam they recomended the 231/237 to me after i brought up i wanted it to lope. what would the 231/237 do for my setup (check sig)? my car must remain a daily driver as its all i have for the time being. I need something that will give me back some of the low end torque i lost going with the 3" duals. I love my duals BTW.

 

go to www.thunderracing.com and pick which one best suits your style.

 

 

thanks arctic...yea i want a choppier idle...so im gonna do it either on a 112 or a 110...thanks again.

 

Damn, i'd love to hear this cam on a 110. Have fun tuning her. Will be interesting Jason would LOVE that. A whole bunch of people run this cam daily drive. SouthFl02SS runs this cam, so did gomer, just to name two better known members you might run across. It can definitely be put in a daily drive. It will be in mine. I'll be runnin true duals as well, al a TSP most likely. thanks to jason being willing to work with me. This cam used to be called a max-effort cam. It still is a max-effort cam, if you want to be able to mill your heads to bump up compression. Won't run into PtV clearance issues with this cam. Also runs softer lobe profiles so isn't homicidal on the springs.

And no....I'm not biased at all about this cam. Especially not b/c I chose it myself. LOL.

 

hell yah cyphur i cant wait to get this cam and install it. if its available in a 110 im gonna get it for sure.should be sick. LOL.

 

call jason @ tsp, talk to him about it. i dunno what it would do to the ve's, he might be able to get one grinded for ya in a 110.

 

all right ill give him a cal tomorrow.thanks again, bro. i also left brad a message at forcefed...hell call me tomorrow.

 

cyphur_traq,
Thanks for the info im gunna do it.


you really like the smilieys huh. oh, sorry to lurk in your thread .

 

yes i do like the smilies,yenko.... sorry didnt mean to be a dick.....just wanted to use the new smilies....LOL.

 

Naw, its cool . the new smiles are prety sweet

 

called forcefed today and figured out the cam that i want.a 232/238 .575 .579 on a 112.should be a very nice compliment to my set-up...and im probably gonna get my heads milled soon.patriot gold duals...ported LS6 oil pump and pushrod's are in store for the new stout cam.

 

lol thats cool, i just got done tellin jason how a rash of ppl had decided to go with the 231/237 b/c of this thread. shoot me a pm explainin why you changed your mind. i'm interested in hearin about this cam. still think u should call jason....they put some mad r&d into their cams, i'm sure they tested that combo too.

 

yeah definately.i called chuck@HPE today and he actually recommended his "S" cam 238/242 3500-6500....he said this is an awesme cam, especially in an M6....he said they threw down 422rwhp in an all-stock '98 cam-only swap!! thats crazy...also its on a 115lsa for easy wear on springs and good idle quality.im torn between these two!!!! this sucks...im gonna call jason@TSP tomorrow.

 

LOL. Sounds like you have a whole bunch of choices now. Hit Jason up. After that, talk to Allan over at Futral. By then, you'll have talked to enough people to where you should have a pretty good idea what you want. If you're not lookin to replace springs constantly, then keep that in mind. Softer/less extreme lobes will help achieve that generally. I want my power to kick in a little lower then 3500, just b/c I spend more time racing on the streets then I do on the track.

 

yea me too...more streeet racing than track.ill call jason and alan tomorrow. thanks for all your help,cyphur.

 

finally got my car back from ams. just need to break my new spec 3 in now i figure just putz'n around town, it'll take like three weeks to break her in. then get to install the cam
