08 scsb cam
A guy I know has a 08 scsb with a 5.3 he's got a tune shifkit and a 150 wet shot
He went 12.5x @ 108.xx. And he's getting a cam the specs are 227 241 on a 109lsa I don't think it will run very good I want to know what u guys think about the cam I might be a lil off on the specs but its the comp cams thumper cam

I was just checking out Comp's site, and those thumpr cams are for sbc's and bbc's, and are really intended just to sound tough, like something you'd put in a street rod. I didn't see anything there that indicated that they released those cams for the LS engines, but I might have missed it. But if they did release them for LS engines, I don't think it would be a very good cam choice. With that much duration and such a tight LSA, that cam has some major overlap, and engine vacuum will be very low and tailpipe emissions will be very high. I would think that tuning would be a nightmare also. Not a good choice IMO

I would def. say the TSP224R or the TR224 would be a better choice.
If he would get any of the cams stated above i would at least put a 3200 stall in to keep it in its power band pretty good.

I ran a 12.50 in a ext cab with my cam no stall and 150 shot I think the tr224 is to small imo maybe like a a 228/230 on 111 for him
He wants a nasty idle and a big cam he does more of track racing then on track racing
