Default Patrick G custom cam arrived today!
I couple weeks ago I had Patrick G spec a cam for me. It arrived today from Thunder Racing. I am extremely excited to get this installed and have some fun with it! Basic cam specs are a 224/230 113+2 LSA. I am hoping for 380ish RWHP cam only with my current mods.

January 2nd I drop it off at Speed inc for the installation and Dyno tune. I will post video's of it as soon as it is installed. Some WOT passes and some idle vids. Weather permitting.

You should easily hit that. I did 374 on one of his 224/226 cams. And I personally think there is more in mine.

that's good numbers for just a cam... no other mods?

I just dynoed my engine before the rod knock came up and with that same cam it only dynoed at 334rwhp... that was with Lid/Filter, Cat-Back, BBK Manifold, BBK Throttle Body... Stock LT's/Y-Pipe w/Cats

I am a M6. I think this cam will work out nicely for me. I drove my buddies TR224 and it was nice. So I think this will be a great little cam for me.
