Bump for a great thread. I've been considering the same with a 112 LSA. I have a 2002 SS, 6M w/ 3.90's and unported stock heads and need the street manners of a reliable daily driver.....you guys see any reason why this cam wouldn't work well with my setup?

^^^ This would work great for your set up & TEA is still showing the cams for $269.. Might hit them up pretty quick about it.

This camshaft is only going to be 269 for a couple more days before the price is changed for good. This is a great daily driven camshaft. I daily drive my car without any problems.

I have run their camshafts in almost everything to big block pontiacs and big block buicks to my ls1. They make great stuff.

It's nice to see that tric flow has raised the price of this camshaft $70.00 with out raising the price of the rest of their cams. I guess they have to pay the guy who runs the that cam machine more than the rest of their employees. I used to think this was a very good buy, and that they would make their money on volume not price gouging. For what they are asking now, they are now in the ball park of what is already out there. I was going to run this cam, not sure anymore. Maybe Vengence or LG with similar numbers

Thanks for the info. I think I'm going to pull the trigger on this one!

Can you get this cam on a 114* LSA? I thought it was a 112* only. Anyone have a link too? The Trick Flow web page I'm looking at doesn't have a price

Pardon my ignorance for not knowing who it is, but can someone shoot me a PM to let me know who makes this cam.

Also, anyone have a sound clip of their car after the install? I picked up one of these cams and am hoping to get an idea of what I might be able to expect after the install.
