TSP VVT- 3 camshaft - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

The TSP vvt3 camshaft with package is going in my car on January 22, 2018 along with the circle d 3200 stall tq converter and tranny cooler. Do I need to get anything else besides the liquids? (Spark plugs are basically new)

Did you get the dod delete with it as well?

Good deal..I would get a transcooler and some people do a oil pump as well.

When you add a stall to the auto trans, you have to add a trans cooler too. Would be a good idea on a stage 3 cam to add the melling oil pump if you can swing the $150. Only other thing I can think of is maybe think of switching out all 16 lifters. That's what I'm doing for my cam this winter. Most packages only sell you 8 lifters to replace the AFM ones, but if youre opening it up - might as well do the other 8 too

I got all 16 in the package. What is the part number of the pump.

I think typing oil pump in Texas-Speed.com comes up with the pump?

Did they recommend 3200 stall? Seems low

It was a gift. TSP's website shows minimum stall speed for this cam is 3200 rpm. My car also have the ILE gears if it matters.

LS9 head gaskets and ARP head and Crank Bolts if they were not included with your kit. Make sure you chase all the head bolt block threads and blow them clean real clean. Good luck with your project.

same cam im looking at doing ...also have the 3.91 gears

will be watching this thread for updates

good luck man !!

I am running the VVT-3 with a Yank 2800. It works ok but could use a bit more stall. Thinking about a restall to 3200 or 3600.

Bandit63 · 01-01-2018, 07:53 PM

Think I’m going with this cam also w/ a set of TSP LT headers. I already have circle d 3200 stall and 3.91 gears.
