best cam for shorties ,00 m6
ok guys so im in a dilemma i have an ls6 intake 799 heads and i have pacesetter shorties , i hear nothing but good things about the tr224/224 114 lsa cam , but also good things about the cheaTR cam 218/230 118 lsa for stock manifolds , since i have shorties what in your guys opinion would be the best. im trying to get as close to 400hp as possible thanks !!!!

I had a ls1 with with 243 heads and shorties in a 04 GTO with a predator cam 224/231 577/588 and it made the same hp with shorties and then long tubes.If interested I can get you more info on the cam.

IMO there really isn't a BEST cam for shorty headers, the key is to staying with a small enough cam to where the exhaust isn't restrictive. And with the above example the GTO exhaust is different then F bodies. So although a 224 cam will work with shorties you would probable be leaving a few ponies on the table without LT's

so i better just ask the shop who is going to do my tune then , they have tons of experience with lsx engines , Fbodyjunkie06 so you think the cheaTR will be my best option ?? and still pass smog ?

If the cheaTR has 12 more exhaust duration to help with the manifold bottle-
neck, and shorties are slightly better (5-7hp), I'd guess perhaps only 8 deg's
more would help the cylinder head's 70% Ex. to In. flow ratio. EPS 218/226
when tuned will sound and act stock yet still pass smog

IMO there really isn't a BEST cam for shorty headers, the key is to staying with a small enough cam to where the exhaust isn't restrictive. I personaly advice all to go for your types of car insurance, also with the above example the GTO exhaust is different then F bodies. So although a 224 cam will work with shorties you would probable be leaving a few ponies on the table without LT's.
