Default MS3 or Torquer 3

Ok fella's this is what ive got on my '00 Camaro SS:
Joe Crane Heads
LS6 Intake
Kooks LongTubes
True Duals
373 Gears.

The cam thats in there right now is comparable to what comes in the LS6.

Now that we have gotten past that what cam will best suit these parts. I know the MS3 will carry me on the top end... But ive been told that The Torquer 3 works better with my powerband. What shoudl I do? I don't wanna make the mistake of buying a cam and i'm stuck with it. Or should i just get a custom grind?

I would suggest going custom. Those are proven cams though. If it's a six speed, I'd probably go to 4.10s. If it's an auto, you'll need a stall for either of those. An F13 is also a nice cam.

I don't think you will go wrong either way. I know a few guys that run the MS3 and they run good. I have the T3 and love it. The MS3 may need 3-400 more RPM but the T3 has the high lift. So they both have there + and -. As far as power I don't think there is much of a difference.

between the two, i think the torquer is the better choice simply b/c it has more "under the curve" power which is essential on the streets

between the 2 i would say the TORQUER V.3 would be a better street cam with more useable power. but i just dont really like that huge lift.

Custom all the way. That high lift is one reason I stayed away from a TV3. PM Predator-Z or Patrick G on here and have them spec you one. That way you'll get it right the first time!!
