Default TSP 233/239 Info?

Just curious if there is any more sound clips or dyno numbers for this cam? I read the two big posts about it with a couple of people who had gotten this cam, but also read there were others who were waiting to get this cam as well. Just wanting to hear some more clips, and see some more numbers since this is the cam I am probably getting. I want to compare numbers and mods to what I've got as well.

Mods as of right now:

LID
3" magna flow exhaust
fast toys ram air

I will be getting these when I get the cam:

LS6 intake
3" electric cutout

Thanks for any help ...

Chris I think you could hope for a little more than that. Are you going to take it to lexington and have alex tune it there on one of the dyno's or what? If I'm in town I may make the trip and check it out. Also, If ya need any help let me know.

Not a very big list of bolt-ons I would do some LT headers, a ported TB and a few other bolt-ons before doing a cam, but that is JMO.

I would contact TSP and see if they have any more info that could help you out.

I can't get sound out of the video camera for some reason.

But the numbers are in the sig. AS S2 5.7 heads, stock throttle body at time of dyno, asp pulley, Thunder headers, through full exhaust and with belts.

We haven't had a chance to get on it since it has been raining so much. But with Futral tuning, it drives great!!!

Are you talking about the Firehawk or the T/A?

So you are running AS 5.7 heads and the 233/239 cam?

Sorry, yes the Firehawk. And yes, AS 5.7 heads and 233/239. The heads were for a different project, but that changed to a 408, so the heads went on the Firehawk. We haven't had a chance to get to the track yet. And with the tranny, it may be a little longer. But the cam is great so far. From the little street time we have had, it pulls awsome at high rpms. A little sluggish at low rpms with the 3500 stall.

My bad, I thought I put the LT's in there. I have Hooker LT's also. What other bolt on's would you suggest?

Also, what all will I need when doing this cam? Again, thanks for the help.

Awesome, look forward to hearing it and thanks!


I went ahead and ordered mine today, and should expect it the end of next week. Will be a few weeks to install though, so I can get money for a tune afterwards

Yeah, the only clip I can find is of Chief, and I think that is through a cutout. I would like to hear more if anybody has them though
