Default i picked a cam (FINALLY)!!!

just wanted to say i ordered my cam package today. after a lot and i mean a lot of searching and researching and talking with different sponsors and people, i went with the TSP 233/239 and PRC spring kit. i'm finishing bolt ons too as well, adding the LS-6 intake and ASP pulley to compliment the rest of the mods done. i'm buying 3.73s off of a guy i know as soon as i get ahold of him. i can't wait to get this put together and see how it runs. just wanted to share my happiness and thank everybody who put up with my relentless questions.

hey man wassup.. remember me i was posting in all those 233/239 threads with you, i made my cam choice finally too.. except i went with the f14, 232/234 114lsa for n2o... a lil smaller but according to what i read it seems like a similar sized cam.. shoudl be intresting to see how ours match up with similar stalls/gears/ and boltons on teh dyno. what #'s are u looking for.. id like 380/370 in the long run when i get my pulley ect. maybe 10-15 more and a lil more tq if i can ever afford my fast intake setup!

i had planned on porting my throttle body when the car comes apart for the install. as far as dyno numbers are concerned i could really care less as long the car gets a real low 12 sec run and drives fine. i'm sure i'll post numbers when it does go to the dyno and most importantly: the track.

Wish you the best of luck, I had the EXACT same setup, same stall, same gears, same cam, but I returned the cam due to a sudden unexpected expense. This time around, I may do a G5X2, or a GMPP ASA, but that damn HPE 'S' cam is very tempting...420+ rwhp on stock heads. Hope everything goes well, let us know when you got that 11 second timeslip.
