I will be buying a 402ci LS2 short block from Texas-Speed sometime next week. I have new ported lS6 heads w/ Gold PRC's that I will be using. I am thinking of going with a MS3. What do you guys think? I want my car to be some what easy to drive. I might be using this car for a daily driver. How streetable will a cam like this be compared to the MS4?. My car has almost all bolt ons and I will be using the LS6 intake and Ported TB for now untill I can afford a 90/90 setup. What kind of HP do you guys think I should be expecting with a setup like this. Thanks for any Help or Info.

Well MS3 Is way to small
My firend daily drive his car with 346ci and MS4 This cam will be better and stronger.

Either MS4 or Gaint a littel rough Idle but not that bad with your M6.

I'm pretty sure that the Texas Giant will be too much for me. I would rather sacrifice 10-15 RWHP in order to keep driveablity good. As far as the MS4 goes I would never consider that cam a daily driver in a 346ci atleast for me. Also I have seen a MS4 cam only car lose to a TSP 228 cam only car at the track. Peak dyno HP doesn't mean that much to me. I would rather have a car with great torque and a good HP mark but also drive/run good. I do realize though that with the extra cubes I will have to make up the torque that I would have been losing, the MS4 might be great with my setup. I will be using Stage 1 LS6 heads w/ the PRC double's if that has anything to do with your cam selection. I am also looking for a cam that wont make me replace my Springs every 10,000 miles. Thanks for any help.

234/240 .598"/.609"(XE-R lobes) 113 + 2, this should be pretty mellow for your 402.

What kind of RWHP would I be making as compared to a MS3 or MS4. That cam does seem a little on the small side. But the reason why I am posting here is I am not too familiar with cam's other that for the 346ci. Thanks for your input and I will look into those cam specs.

Mine works pretty good, and its not to wild. (In sig) This is my DD and i have no problems other than the occasional bucking.

Thanks, but I have a brand new TSP 224R which was going to go into my last setup before I hydrolocked my motor and decided to take the 402 route. I'm sure TSP wont have a problem letting me swap that out for one of there other of the shelf grinds. Hence the reason why I was curious about the MS3 & MS4 for this particular setup.

I don't think that it would make more HP than the MS3/4, but it would make more TQ like you had requested. I should have looked up the specs on the MS3 before I posted, as I thought that the MS3 was a little bit smaller than it is. The MS3 on a 112 +2 would work quite nice too. I know that a 402 with L92 WCCH heads/L76 Port Works intake, 234/240 XER 112+0, Yella Terra rockers, and a few other goods made 510 RWHP/ 470 RWTQ in a C5 Vette on a stingy Dynojet (WKMCD). https://ls1tech.com/forums/generation-iv-internal-engine/662314-l92-dynojet-numbers-plus-plan-b-c-d-e-f.html

No more opinions on which cam to use

224/228. its a good reliable cam and leaves you open to easily slap on a FI setup without any issues.

I run this cam 112 -0 but I run L92 heads. The car drives like stock and makes 510/470 with 380 RWT at 2200 and 400 at 3k.

I ran a 244/250 .612 113 LSA and really liked it. Good streetability and ran strong at the track. I recently changed cams to a slightly bigger one ground on different lobes. Give Mike at Rapid Motorsports a call. He has been doing custom cams for LS2 402's longer than anyone.

I would try a Vindicator 240/244 112+4

Run duration of 244-250 and lift of 600-620 on a 112. My preference is to have someone do a custom cam, instead of an off the shelf deal. The good news is that LS engines seem to run quite strong with a variety of camshafts. I've seen engines with "too small cams" make some pretty decent numbers and perform very well at the track.

I guess it depends on what you want. If I had a 402, I would make it more of a daily driver motor and I would contact Tony Mamo from AFR regarding a cam he had on a 402 block that made like 550 rwhp while maintaining great driveability.
