TSP 231/236 or 235/239 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

2010abmss · 04-29-2014, 03:19 AM

I know the 235/239 makes a little more up top but would the 231/236 be a better fit for daily driving or go with the 235/239 with a good tune and deal with a little bucking. Am I going to lose that much low end with the 235 compared to the 231? I had a Magic stick 4 in my 2001 Z28 and I daily drove it so I'm used to driving a big cam car.
Thanks

If you want a tsp cam and a good DD the 229/236 is a good option. And it makes like 5hp less than the 231/236.

they show a comparison if you click on the little blue dyno jet icon on the website when comparing the cams on the cam page for the 235/239 as that is what they have to show its engine stand dyno h.p.. I have the 235/239 with a 112 lsa, and is you really want a cam to be more streetable you should look at the LSA....

Not just LSA, more importantly overlap .

Thanks buddy! How is the driveability with this for you?
I'm really leaning towards the 235/239 the tune can make a big difference, I'm going to have Pat G tune it for me, I only live about an hour from him. I think he should be able to get me in line!
