Default Cam died same cam vs different specs
Well my street sweeper ht cam decided to die. one of the lobes is really pitted same with one lifter about 30k miles. Debating to go a little bigger or stay the same. Car has tons of power lower to mid.
Will prob get a cam motion grind this time.
Kind like the tick sns stage 2 for the ls1 (227/235) and the ls2 (231/235) versions

2006 gto 3600stall stock gears, magnaflow, headers

I'd do an EPS 226/234 113 on the Cam Motion core.

I really like the EPS lobes and the Cam Motion core when I had them. Thinking of going back that way actually...

That's a little less rowdy than a G5X3... 234/242.
