Thread: Overkill Cam?

^^^

I remember the TEP originally being 222/222 duration and .566 lift as well. They've changed to the XFI lobes from CompCams based on those specs. It'll have a little blowthrough on the exhaust by the boost at mid-rpm but the exhaust doesn't open and release the energy too early and the intake closes fairly late to help cylinder filling at higher rpm. Probably losing mid-range torque but can see it being a very good high rpm cam.

Thanks Will.

I never went that deep into researching for a cam choice. I just heard Chris Green went low 12's on it with just heads, IC, pulley, TEP Cam, injectors, and a custom tune...stock everything else...even transmission/all season tires. I have a Triple Edge Transmission...and slicks...and P&P'd custom heads. I figured low 12's on a COLD day with awesome track prep...but from my speedo video people tell me its an 11's car no problem...and I find that hard to believe.
