or 3800 with Transbrake / PB valve

Explain to me how my MS3 powered Camaro with only 360hp/300tq went 10.85@126.4 with stock heads, LS6 Intake, ported TB, and 3275 raceweight and +1500 DA?

flag, I suspect they where being sarcastic as someone else said the MS3 didn't make the power and they simply replied with a sarcastic remark.The other giveaway is they actually have a MS3 listed in their sig............

I believe that the power curve would look much better and still have pretty impressive peak numbers. Someone correct me if I'm wrong. Also, what springs would be required with a cam with lift that high?
wouldnt u need to flycut for a cam like htat?good thread, i will be *hopefully* getting myself a cam soon... someone mentioned the "texas giant"... i thought that was the Trex... am i missing something?

yeah, the texas giant is a stroker cam..something like 248/254 i think..on a default lsa of 113..
the reason you can run MORE lift with that particular cam (239/247 .649/656 109LSA+1) is because of the LSK lobes being used. they close FASTER than pretty much every other lobe i've seen on the market for an lsx cam. thanks to patrick g i have re-thought my custom cam, and lsk lobes are now a big part of it.
