Ordered my cam...round 2 (TR236) Hey everyone. I ordered a TSP233/239 back in January but returned it, convinced that I needed to save up money to move in with my now ex-gf. Good thing I didn't do that....in case you read my post about my St. Patty's day fight, where a guy pushed my ex, I went after him, and then she drove off with him, well yeah, that's her. Anyway, since I've come to my senses and realized that I am NOT living with her, it's time for a cam. This time around I chose the TR236. 236/230 duration, .602"/.575" lift, on a 112 LSA. I think this should work very well with my 3500 stall and 3.73's. I liked the numbers the TR230 put down in various cars I have seen, I've always been a fan of reverse splits, and I wanted to go with a fairly large cam, so this was my choice. I cannot wait, my car's going to make me very happy this summer.

When it's all installed and ready to go...I'll let everyone know how it is, since theres a gross lack of experience with this cam. I don't know how soon I'll get it dynoed, but I'll post up some SOTP experiences. 
I can't wait...however, TR informed me that it'll be 2 weeks wait for a new grind, but that's fine with me...very nice people to work with. A+++

you can get a double roller or somthing like that if you want, but lots of people call it overkill. the LS2's chain has thicker links than the ls1 but looks similar.
