I wouldnt think that cam would work well in a tbss. Weight alone and the intake itself wouldnt match that cam.

put a giant converter in it, sure.

I run a 226/234, and currently have the cam only record. You dont need a donkey dick cam to run good times.

all the bolt on stuff, rpm trans, a bit of suspension and some weight reduction.

What up Jared??
I thought Ed caught your Bolton record or did he catch it but only on 20's? Either way your truck is moving pretty good for being a cammin tin can ..... Lol I wish we could have cammed silver it def would have cracked a 11.

I really would like to get to the track more but with workin 7 12's and a 2 year old plus wife being pregnant my time is limited.

98maro I would love to help you with your tbss but as you see i don't have time for much... Talk to Jared he will get you hooked up with the second fastest tbss guys in Chicago.......

we have put a cam similar into a tbss once... but it was a 403 with afr heads sheetmetal intake and a 4400 stall. Never would do it on stock cubes.

Jared's truck runs very well with the cam we spec'd out for him. Gonna try testing a new intake manifold and possibly a converter and see where we can go this next year.

We have a few new cam design's going into testing here in the next 2 months both 2wd and now with our latest connection awd trucks.

Jake, we both know mod for mod we are more than equal just a matter of a good truck and a good day

Guessin thats Brandon? You know I like to give you guys $hit for not catching the 2wd bolt-on silver bullet.


We can all agree that the vindicator is just to big for these stock cubed TBSS's

Yes sir!

I haven't had the chance with an equally modded 2wd yet. One of these days one of my guys will get the bug to go after that truck before they get the cam itch. Just sucks that north of i80 finding a 2wd truck is like finding a real gnx. Its all in good fun though, sucks to see that truck got wrecked. Interested to see that the mods were swapped now to another truck and see how fast that one goes.
