LS2 cam question The cam in my LS2 is toast.. long story, but I need to replace it, in a HURRY.
The grind in there now is a custom one by COMP the specs are:
230/232 .591/.595 114+2
The problem is that, since it's a custom grind, I can't get it until next Monday. We need to get this car done asap for a shoot and test.
Comp now has this cam in stock and I can get it by Wednesday.
232/234 .595/.598 112
How do you think this cam will compare to the one I'm taking out? the lower LSA should make it more lumpy, but do you think it will loose much bottom and mid-range power?
It's pretty close in spec. Thoughts...
My new slogan: The first 98% of building a car is easy, the last 2% will make you cry. lol

If the advance is the same as your 114LSA cam, you will have more low and mid-range torque due to the higher dynamic compression.
