Angry Bolts In/On with TRAK Camshaft...


Hi Guys,
I installed some parts on my Trans Am 1999 M6:
1- Pacesetter Headers Long Tube Ceramic Coated 1 3/4".
2- Custome Exhaust dual line 3" with true x-pipe and 2 SLP Loud mouth II.
3- Thunder Racing Trak Camshaft (233/235 - .649/.602 - 112 LSA).
4- Lifters, Pushrods, Double Roller Timing Chain, Single Spring valve max Lift 650".
5- K&N Ait Filter.
6- LS6 Intake Manifold.
7- Injectors 30lp and Fuel Pump 255lp
8- RAM Stage 4 Clutch and Steel Flywheel
9- Ring & Pinion Gear Ratio 4.10.
10- A Good Tuning.

So, guys what you expect the maximum rwhp and rwtq !!!!!

not necessarily, and probably not. , and the duration is a decent bit lower than the ms4. much more streetable and overall cam than the ms4, especially for the street and mild strip.

If im gonna max out my springs then i dont want to not be maximizing my power....its just my opinion but if this TRAK cam is the same lift as the MS4 i would rather have the big dog, atleast that way when im changing springs every 10k i know it was worth it and dont have to think that i coulda gone bigger.

dont change it to a ms4...if anything go with a custom grind, but ms4 is a cammotion cam not a comp cam...so keep that in mind when maknig your decision. and i would talk to predator z or patrick g first and let them spec out a cam that will put up better numbers than a off the shelf cam.

MS4 is a Comp cam grind LSK/XE-R

The TRAK is more proprietary to Thunder and is an awsome cam. Properly done the TRAK will be within 10 rwhp of the MS4 assuming all is optimal.

I would not change TRak for MS4 if allready installed, I would put on a nice set of heads instead, if on budget like stage 2 Livernois 243 casting

Predicting horsepower is like predicting the weather. Properly done it will make a lot, more with a bit of nitrous

My 01 Z06 made 465rwhp 422rwtq and reved to 7300rpm on stock internals with some $2800 (at the time) ET 2.055 LS6 heads. Had dual springs and had one break at around 7200rpm... inner spring still held and kept my valve from falling into my engine, and ruining my expensive heads It's nice for added safety.
