Default TR236 cam arrived today!

For those that were wondering what the specs were, My cam card reads 236.8/230.2 - 599/574 on a 112.0 LSA. I need to finish up some fine tuning with the TR230 cam (Which I just put in a month ago) and get a fresh dyno, then install the TR236 cam and see what happen's, should be interesting!

I have a few issues right now to sort out as well, mainly the 3.9 KR problem at WOT, pretty sure it's false KR but I need to get rid of it to get some good comparisons. This cam should work well with my ABS heads flowing 306 @ 600 lift. My best ET so far is in my sig, but that was with the KR problem and bad track prep (Hence the 1.80 60') on a 96* day and 2400' DA, so I doubt I get a good track comparison between the two cams, but should get a good dyno comparison between the two.

It's not up on there site yet, but I'm sure once the testing is done, it will be a good seller...

Of course it's in good shape ! It has less than 800 miles on it. I can sell it or send it back to TR, don't know yet...

No number's yet Nick, I am one of the tester's. It will work on a stock headed car according to TR with un-milled heads or very little milled off (.005).
