I had a TR230 for 4 years in my DD, no problems. Now I have a 240/236 .604/.604 112+4 and still DD it. Never had any problems and I even spend a lot of time stuck in rush hour traffic.

What cc heads are you running?
I have 59cc's so I'm looking for something that won't give me ptv issues and be a dd cam. I spoke with SI and they said I might run into some problems but they weren't sure.

I have been running a TSP 233/233 595 595 112+2 for a few years on my daily driver. I made 401hp with an A-4 unlocked. I now have Dart 205's I just installed. I am not sure when I will get it dyno'd.

Good luck.

Just get Patrick G to spec you something. That's the best way to get the most streetable power. I would recommend getting something that will work well and make good power and forget the PVC. If you have to flycut, its not that expensive and you will be more satisfied than if you stay smaller than you really want to save some money. Just my 2 cents though.

Patrick suggested a 232/232 .612/.604 111+4. I don't understand the advanced part and the lsa is really low (111). I've pretty much narrowed it down to the torquer 2 or this cam from Patrick. I just hope that this is a good cam for my dd..lol.

I run the same heads as you and have the TSP 233/239 112lsa cam and have no problems and as a DD it is not bad at all.

I have the Tv2 cam in my car. My heads are patriot stg 2 67 cc heads. The cam drives great. I think there are several of those cams that will give you a bump in power without being a PIA to drive.

My cam is Patrick G speced and is VERY similar to the one you posted. I still have stock 3.42 gears and mine would be no problem to DD if I wanted to.

The results are that the F13 highlift on a 112lsa will fit. But the good news is that a F14 highlift 114lsa will fit too

(the 112lsa would make it to tight)

So a big thanks go out to John and Terry at FMS for mocking up the setup.

the lift is .612 on the intake and .590 on the exhaust...it is on a 111+2 lsa and has 230/230 duration...the lobes are XFI for intake and X-ER for exhaust...you will need to get 7.425 pushrods but it drives really great like stock with tons more torque down low...i almost got 394 rwtq and the dragstrip back up the dyno numbers by showing it wasnt an inflated dyno...

i have made lots of posts about it there is no reason to go huge like a ms3 or ms4 for a daily driver...let me see what i can find...i think the lobe numbers are in one of the threads...

check them all out should help u out tons...

What numbers did you get with this cam? And does it drive great? any surging problems? Is it your daily driver?

Thanks for getting back with me on this. Whats the advantage in having highlift over the regular F13? What numbers did you get with it? I'm torn between this cam, tsp torquer 2, tsp 233/239, tr custom grind. Picking out another cam is a hard decision.

As far as the lift, if you go with the non-highlift version you will be leaving some HP on the table... how much I am not sure but when you put all the effort into doing the swap you want the most optimal setup you can get

Do it once and do it right so that when your done tune and all you don't start thinking "what if" or "i should'a"
