Exclamation Tsp?

Thinking about getting a cam package through texas speed performance. cam: 224/224 .581/.581 114lsa. comes with comp 918 springs and TSP hardend pushrods. 600 for package sounds like a good deal or shoudl I look for something diff. looking for more mid to high range torque while mantaining the daily drivability of the car. here's the link to the site package.

TSP you can trust to deliver performance. Many on these boards can testify to this.

Don't forget your oil pump and timing chain. There's a few peripherals that go along w/ upgrading the valvetrain.

Holy Sig Police! Might wanna shrink that sig you got there. You got a lot good info about your car but it can only be 8 lines long and I dont wanna see you have it magically disappear like mine did....just a friendly warning (see stickys at the top)

Otherwise you'll be very happy with that setup, Good luck! Cant wait to see videos/numbers!

i have the 228r with my 5.3 heads. i had mine ground on a 112 lsa cuz i like chop it chops more than other 112 cams ive had...i guess because of the aggressive ramp rates of the xer lobes of texas speed's r cams. anyway, its a kickass cam man, u will pick up a lotta mid to top end power while maintaining daily driveability on the street
