Question Which cam?

Hey guys, I'm currently in the market for a cam, after doing a lot of research on here, I'm still undecided, MTI tells me to go with stealth II and TSP torquer v.2 or v.3, both companies make good stuff, which one would be best for my car? it is a dd, street use only, no racing, I'm looking for nice sound and some good perf. Here are the mods on my car: 4.10 gears, true duals x pipe, lid, headers. Thanks for your votes, Jerome.

I didn't vote because I would run the G1 or X1 maybe (even the R1) from MTI. Not sure why they're recommending the stealth 2. Either that or I would pay Mr. Patrick G. to custom spec you one. That's what I would do. (or did?)

Did some research again and it looks like the TR224 and TR230 are some pretty damn nice cams for daily drivers too.

That's all I needed to see. I agree that a 224 sized cam would suit your needs very well.

Since it is a 6 speed and I have 4.10's, I could also go for custom cam 230/232 .612"/.592 111LSA with +2 advance from Patrick.
