Question hmmmm which one?...

anybody had any luck with these?

FM-F6-114 FMS Custom Grind Camshaft - 226"/230" .575"/.595" 114LSA - semi-aggressive profile with a 2000-6800 RPM range, fair idle

and.......

FM-F7-114 FMS Custom Grind Camshaft - 224"/230" .588"/.595" 114LSA - aggressive profile with a 1800-6800 RPM range, fair idle, recommended for blower/nitrous applications

I'm thinking i might go with one of these insead of the TSP 228R.....how would one of those cams work with TSP's new LS6 ported cnc budget heads?

would u guys think one of those cams and the TSP LS6 heads make me happy power wise?(its gonna be in a true DD)Also see my sig for the other mods that will go on before the heads and cam)

Well its not exactly an experience, but I kind of like the F6, and am thinking about going with it if I end up doing heads. I would also like to hear some feedback though...not only is the search cut off to a month, you cant search for just "F6" because its too short, so finding info that way is almost impossible right now.

both cams would work great,but the f10 would work better,even in a DD.Its similar to the tsp 228,specs on the f10 are 228/228 576/576 112 or 114 for your automatic.Thats what im gonna use with the ported ls6 heads i have and i hear the f10 is not that bad to tune for.

TSP 228R is a good cam for your setup.
XE-R lobes, lifts within parameter of head output.
I say stick with your initial choice.

Either, LS2/LS6 stage 2 castings (243)
or
DART 205 cast

For the cam 228R,
For that cam I would pick the LS2 casting since they are cheap, and unmilled will accept a huge cam when you change your mind in , well.... 3months time
