You should be fine-it's going to be close like mine-but bottom line is if it clears it clears.

Double check to make sure.

So does this mean I can mill my l92 heads to 64cc? Will I have to flycut to fit a 224/230 cam?

There are too many variables for anyone to give a 100% answer. The only true and honest answer to PTV clearance "You'll have to check and see"

You might be able to set the unmilled head on first and see how much you have first, if the cam is in already and you are going to use the same head gasket. You would still have to do a final check, but in theory, should give you a ballpark idea of where you stand.

I just gave my experience, it wont match everyone elses becasue there are tolerance stacks in every engine. Just as an example, I tried a 223/231 cam and had .045" PTV on my intake.

This really is the only answer.

For the TorquerV2 to fit, you will not be able to mill those heads much if at all without flycutting.

TorquerV2 232/234 .596/.598 @112 LSa

8ByGoats cam 232/236 600/600 113lsa


8ByGoat milled his heads milled .0030 with the stock gasket and his cleared without cutting. Why wont the torquerV2? Its smaller. Is it the the LSA that made a difference from the 112 to 113?

It cleared....by how much? Some people's definition of clearing is different than others. Also, the numbers @.050" aren't telling the whole story. The XER lobes on the TorquerV2 have some very aggressive low lift numbers.

Not by much lol-but it did clear.

Do you really think the lobes on the TV2 are more aggressive than a Flowtech cam?

I don't know...do you have the other specs (duration at .006" and .200") on that cam? The XER lobes are known to be very aggressive ramps. That lift and duration @.050" only tell part of the story.

Ed,

Fair enough, I understand. 8ByGoats cam seems to be in alot of setups over on ls1gto.com.
232/236 600/600 113lsa

Whats the cost of a cam package with it from you? Cam, pushrods, and valve springs to work with it? Im wanting to use stock ls3 gaskets, on a stock bottom end ls2 and NOT flycut. Heads milled .0030 as well.

Stock l92's are actually 69.8cc

From what I have found in my search for a l92 cam is there isnt really anything set in stone either way.Ive seen dyno sheets of small cams making the same or more power than alot larger cams...one thing that is consistent is relativly low lift....

On the combo I plan on,a 408 with CNC'd l92's,one of the big guys that everyone goes to for cams rec'd a 226/238 114lsa .59x/.60x

Is it just me or is that WAY to small of a cam for a 408 with all the bolt ons and ported heads?

This is going in a heavy truck but would still think it would be bigger?
