BTW, if you're thinking about getting this cam you wont be dissapointed. Those quick lift rockers will definately help this cam out. I'd love to get a set and see if it would put me at the 400hp mark.

cool i found the cam at sdpc2000.com. Oh and thats awesome about the potential with 1.8's i think this is the cam for me. I love how its lighter on the valvetrain. How high would you guys spin this cam to on your setups?

After reading this thread, Im rethinking my cam purchase now. I was going to purchase the Patriot 226, but I may end up purchasing the ASA cam. I wouldnt take it to the track that much, maybe 3-4 times a year, since its a DD. Im just wondering what kind of numbers I would put down after installing it. Any input would help. Im thinking around 390-400 to the wheels.
On the car: Mac mid tubes w/Y, K&N FIPK, ASP pulley, ported TB, SLP catback, free mods, NGK, MSD 8.5
Soon to install when I get cam: LS6 intake, electric cut out, LS6 heads w/comp 918 springs, Comp 7.4 pushrods and 3200-3400 stall.

You should put down about 400rwhp if you put the LS6 heads on, maybe more. I put down 400rwhp 385rwtq with stock LS6 heads. If you get a good tune on it you should do about the same or more!!
