Thumbs up Tick Performance's newest LSx Camshaft: The Polluter


In a day and time when it seems like the entire world is focused on economical transportation and "going green", Tick Performance is... well... not. Call us old fashioned, but we still like making a lot of tire-shredding horsepower and making a lot of unadulterated noise. We designed this cam to be one of the biggest, nastiest, lopiest bumpsticks that you can slide into a stock bottom end - but with one important feature that competitor cams leave out: TORQUE.

For years, us cam-only LSx guys have been making big horsepower with big camshafts, but most left alot to be desired in the torque department. Determined to change that, we here at Tick Performance teamed up with GM Expert tuner Alvin Anderson of PCMForLess to design a camshaft that will offer the big horsepower numbers that big cams provide in these cars, but also make the big TORQUE that makes driving these heavy F-Bodies much easier and makes them feel much more responsive.

The specs? .24x/.24x (.61x/.61x) on a 110 or 112LSA

The results?


This isn't a car that is set up with all kinds of dyno tricks and optimizations to get the best number, this is an EXTREMELY basic bolt-on 2001 Camaro with a 6spd and our Polluter cam installed. These numbers are with an LS6 intake. These numbers are with a backyard true dual exhaust setup with SLP's old-design headers. These numbers are with bone stock heads that have never been off of the car and of course a bone stock, untouched bottom end. These results are from the Polluter on a 112LSA and the smoothing is set to zero because there is a spike in the graph when we set it to 5.

Imagine what would happen if we put a FAST 92mm Setup on it? Imagine what would happen if we put a far better exhaust on it? Imagine what would happen if we sprayed it?

Oh wait - this is Tick Performance! Of course we sprayed it.


The above results are with a Zex kit installed with the 125hp pills. The Polluter on a 112LSA absolutely loves nitrous!

For you all motor guys, the Polluter is available on a 110LSA, as well. We'll be posting results up soon for it! The 110LSA Polluter will require flycutting, so if you're going cam-only, the 112LSA is definitely your best bet. Although we suggest checking piston-to-valve clearance during every cam install, we haven't had any issues using the 112LSA version in non-flycut stock bottom end with stock heads & gaskets.
