Default TSP Goes Back to Engine Dyno with Stock 346 LS1!

Guys we're getting ready to go back to the dyno with a stock bottom-end engine for testing next week! We'll be testing 5 camshafts with different exhaust lobes on them & several different intake lobes including lobes built specifically for TSP!! Hopefully these custom lobes should help us raise the bar in camshaft development once again!

If you guys want to see some of these supposed supercams you've seen online feel free to shoot me a PM. If we have some extra time maybe I'll throw in some camshafts you guys would like to see tested!

We're looking to get some cylinder head, camshaft & ported intake test work done so we can continue to provide our customers with dead-on proven results, not guesstimates.

What I will promise you guys is we'll learn a lot of good information that will allow us to step up the performance once again in our latest camshafts!

We will be posting results in public forums. We don't have a cam list yet. We are looking for some input on what cams you guys would like to see tested. We can't release the specs on exactly what new cams we will be testing just yet but should have them available in the coming weeks.

Jason & Jon:

I know you guys are going to get many requests.

Think a lot of us would like to see a cam 'comparable' to the quintessential "224".

Streetable, but great average HP/TQ over the curve.

Any way you can include a 'smaller' cam in with the big guys?

I would like to see an LSK intake lobe < 230° and an exhaust (either XFI or XE-R) with +2° to +4° split. Hurry up and get it done - I am about to pull the trigger on heads and cam.

Im w/ weathermanshawn, plenty of guys interested in "smaller" cams rather than the big ones that get all the talk. I might even make the switch to something smaller if these things look good, and I pimp the torquer 3 any chance I get!

Any chance we could get a PRC vs AFR cylinder head comparison, all else being equal?

if anything it would be interesting to see a difference of lobes. same .050 duration numbers but different lobes to see how the lobes actually differ.

some of your shelf cams installed on different lsa and icl's. Dont care much to see specific cams or some other "insert cool name" cam. Just differences in something that can actully be considered on the technical side.

I would be interested in some of the smaller cams too...Not everyone wants a cam that barely fits under stock heads or something you have to flycut with.
