Any suggestions? And with all cams do springs and lifters have to be upgraded?

I highly recomend this cam guys. Lastnight I punched it at 55 in 2nd and spun the tires, got big rubber in 3rd and hit 120 like nothing! This car is a monster now and still not even tuned yet

Very Happy, I will have dyno numbers on the 4th... but I feel its the power under the curve that is making this car run this way, right at 3000 its making power.

Shoulda mentioned I have a L99

Just got my car back today with a new cam and heads. My cam is close to yours in size but I noticed the same thing. It runs like a raped ape now and pulls so hard. If I'm at a stand still or a slow roll and punch it, holy crap! It takes off and it breaks the tires loose through all but the last two shifts. Pretty awesome! Mine is the TSP 231/236 with 112 LSA. Fun fun!

Not shure but isn't the Voodoo cam mentioned above quite a bit milder than the TSP 231/236 ? The lifts of the TSP seems more extreme as well.

217/228 .549“/.566“ 112 (Voodo)
231/236 .641“/.615" 112 (TSP)

Anyway - both are nice cams!

Keep looking for cams.. best you can do is have a custom one ground..
patrickg is a good person to talk to about cams.. go to big and your going to be soft on the bottom end.. go to small and your not going to be happy .. I havent seen one good cam mentioned in this thread yet
