yes I've seen that grind alot in my searching but i think my next cam i would like to have a lower lsa but with a lower lsa id be in the 220s otherwise there will be ptv issues which isnt what i want so its sorta hard to decide

flowtech ssht (streetsweeper high torque)

228-232, 612-600, 111+3

will deliver increased hp/torque, be lumpier, and ptv shouldnt be issue (but better to check it to be on the safe side....)

that looks pretty good although id rather go a fraction bigger maybe.

what lobes are used on that cam ? and if i was to order it through texas speed

would i just choose a 111lsa ?

what is the intake centre line ?

sorry for all the questions still pretty new at understanding cam grinds and wanna make this my last cam change.

That will be a very, very lumpy cam and only very high rpm torque IMHO.

Sounds like you are circling in on the 231/239 camshaft. 228 is to small and 235 is to big.

Stock CR?

228-236 112 +2. Go too big on the ICL and it will get soggy on the bottom.

Just my $.02

My Stage 2 cam for the LS3 is 231/242 .61x"/.59x" 113+4 and has a nice chop at idle and would be a good upgrade over your current cam.
