Default Ordering TSP 402 Longblock tomorow ???

Well the day has finally came. I blew my 346 up last weekend and I am gonna order the 402 tomorow or at least by wednesday. i am gonna get the longblock with the stage 3 LS6 heads and run my magic stick in it. I notice that alot of you are runing a 402 in here and was just wondering what kind of times you are putting down at the track. I will be using my trusty 2002 camaro and all of the bolt ons that are in sig... Thanks

Ms3 will be considered as a tiny cam for the 402ci . Your previous mods are good to go along with your new long block. I advise you to step in a 1 7/8 LT`s and Improve your intake by going to fast or a sheetmetal.

You need to search more and more for simialar setups, also we need to know what r your goals? what kind of drivabilty will u be comfort with, is it a N/A or NOS setup?

I want to drive it dailly, thats why I dont want a radical cam. I am having it built forged, and H beam rods and a good crank for the nitrous and I plan on spraying a dual stage with a total of 250. I have an antiballoon plate in my converter so it works really well with the nitrous. I would like for it to get in the 10's on motor and well in the 9's on the nitrous... Since I went 11.45 with a stock bottom end, cam only 346 N/A, I dont see why this cant be achieved. Any suggestions.....

No You Could Im Just Saying Youre Spending All That Money A Little Bigger Cam Won't Hurt.... Hell If Anything Try Out One Of Those New Cams From Tsp Like The Ms4 .. You Know A Few Months Down The Line You'll Wanna Make The Swap So Why Not Just Do It Right From The Start


Go Big Or Go Home!!!

I think the MS3 will work for now. Bigger is better, I know but I just want to get my car runnin again. A cam change isnt that big of a deal...

Tell the guys over at MTI that bigger is better They've been sticking small cams in large motors for YEEEEARS (as in longer than MOST- if not ALL of the shops to your right have been in business)

Don't let anyone tell you that you need a gigantic cam to make good power (assuming you have GOOD heads of course)

Good luck on your build, and keep us updated please.

Yeah, I sure hope I can make some good numbers. I loved the powe the MS3 made on the jug in the 346 so I sure hope it works the same in the 402. I am getting PRC ported stage 3 LS6 heads with 2.08, 1.6 valves.

I havent had the cam in but like 3 months and the engine died, but it is bad when you try to make a full 1/4 pass on a 200 shot and hit the 6800 limiter at the 1000 ft mark.....

Its all up to you dude,its your car , but dont expect that much from the car . Its not about how big or how small u go for a cam. Remmember that so many ppl with decent size cams with 402ci and 408ci r still not satisfied with their results. Its all about the right combo. Every part in your engine need to match the other .

My advise is to do your own custom cam that matches your setup. you will need something like 242-252 cam duaration and 114 lsa . Try to contact Tylor at Mizfit Motor Sports i am sure he well be very helpfull. Also, CamMotion , Allan at Futral and comp.

Yeah, I changed my mind to a Texas Giant cam to go in the 402. Hopefully I will like it better and it will go good with my 4400 converter.
