02bluezo6

Hey I have a 02 zo6 with headers intake and exhaust. Looking to get a cam from Texas speed! Wondering what cam other people running in the ls6 from Texas speed! This is my daily driver so I want it pretty aggressive but not have to two pedal it just to keep it running! Any input would be nice! Thanks!!

best bet is to call them. the 224R, 228R, and torquer V2 are all very common daily driver cams

I saw a vid of the TX Speed Tsunami cam in an '01 Z06 the other day with longtubes and exhaust and it sounded nasty.

Yes that one does sound good! Wonder how the driveability is with it sounds pretty big!

i have a torquer v.3 in my car...... for the last 4 years no issues

I called them they told me the v2 would work best for daily driver? Is your vette daily driver with the v3 and no drivability issues?? Thanks

LightFighter_GXP

you could drive it everyday....... but I don't ..... you have to get the pistons notched for valve relief.. my heads are milled so to be on the safe side was a good idea to go that route. The V2 is a little bit milder, but the V3 has okay street manners

I put down 398 RWHP with TEA stage I heads LG LT's and a FAST 76 intake. I like the Texas speed 224 cam, but I do have a lot of valve train noise.

Probably bc you need different size pushrods....

I made 406whp on the torquer 2 cam only with bolt On's and valve train noise sounds stock...... Ls1 motor, been driving it daily for a few months and absolutely love it.....

I have the tv3 and daily drive my car with no issues and i beat on my car everyday. Made 456whp and 414wtq. Torquer 3 for the win. my heads are milled and i didnt have to fly cut my pistons

TheDEfan

Nope, Correct push rods. It's the nature of the beast.

I went with a 228R for my GTO. This cam had a very nice lope and really picked me up in the mid-range, I made 351 RWHP. I liked the cam but I wish I had gone a little bigger. A lot of people really like the way it sounded through my Kooks headers and magnaflow exhaust.

I made 404 with cam only and bolt on's with the torque v2. And my car is a 99 coupe with 853 heads and 26 # injectors. Also keep in mind what your future goals are going to be.

233/239 on a 113 from Texas Speed and its a daily!!

351 from a 228R?? Why so low?
