How long ago did you get a tsp cam? Seems like they are getting a lot of backlash on their products lately. I hear BAD things about their cam cores. I have seen really crappy valve shims being used in their heads. These quality control situations seem to be recent. |

I had said earlier ,jre incase sc later ,tsp because i have been on the fence for about a year with this,good power gains for a lot less,i really hadn't heard anything about backlash or bad cores. I guess im back to square 1 and do more research.

Thanks for considering TSP for your camshaft!
There has absolutely been zero failures from TSP camshafts ground at Texas Speed. Anyone telling you that is probably doing the best they can to spread mis-information. The all new camshafts make more power than the old version. They're the result of months testing on a ls3 engine. Did you watch the video of the new cams in testing? Checkout YouTube! I can even get you a dyno sheet of our old cams next to the new ones. I'm so confident about these camshafts that if you bring anyone's ls3 cam here and it performs better than a comapreable TSP cam I'll give you our cam for free. |
