TPIS ZZ9 Cam/Cast head Package Well as luck would have it, i install this cam i've had laying around for a while, play with it for a few, and it's so damn strong my pick up tube comes off the oil pump..son of a *****.
Just so happens to happen the same day i go to the machine shop to price my 355 build. So now i need money to fund the build.
Cam-TPiS ZZ9
Specs from their page.
ZZ-9 HydraulicRoller:
Intake Exhaust This is an emission legal cam which makes over 400HP with our CNC"D LT heads and F-car headers. Great with an auto or six speed.
Advertised Duration 282/ 287
Duration at .050 212 /226 Gross Lift .483/.520Lobe Separation 112
Like i said i've had this cam for a while but didn't want to run it because i could go WAY bigger b/c of my 4.56 and i was out to see how far i could go on bolt ons alone. But decided to throw it in and see what she would do. The cam is supposed to be for people that don't want to add a stall or gears but have better midrange/upper rpm power. The cam has a slight lope, more than i was thinking, i was told it was a sleeper cam. As far as bottom end, i couldn't really tell a difference, but the car definetly pulled a lot harder all through the midrange all the way to 6K where i decide to stop. I really don't know where the cam quits making power, but i'm sure its around there. I dynoed the car before cam and it made 299.6/326.4 through midlengths, full exhaust, and a cheap intake that was heat soaked like crazy, and without anymore tuning and just the cam, the SOTP feels like 25 or 30 rwhp easy. but like i said, few days after installing my pick up tube came off and i've pulled the motor.
I would say a full bolt on car, with long tubes, a better intake and a dyno tune and you could easily see 340rwhp if not more with this setup. I'm also losing a few HP due to the 4.56 gears.
Heads-Stock cast iron heads, shaved, beehive springs, 1.6 CC SA roller rockers
Also included are the pushrods and ls7 lifters along with the stock valve covers modded to fit with the 1.6 roller rockers.
The cam alone is $375, another $100+ for the lifters, $150+ for the roller rockers, $175+ for the springs. That's $800 bucks without the pushrods, valve covers, or even the heads.
I'm going to start with $625 plus shipping. I'll knock off $75 for the lifters because i'll reuse them on my next motor if you don't want them.
i don't get on here much so please give me a few days if i don't reply right away, thanx.
Paypal accepted and preferred.
