The vinci ultra torque is a Z06 cam, basically and i dont want that.

Im trying to stick with the lower duration, and higher lift.

So, does anyone know if the specs I listed are possible?

Anything is possible.
Look to Comps XFI lobes for short duration, high lift.

i pulled 12k lbs with my ecsb with a comp 212 218 .522 .529 114 lsa.. i had no problems with it..even pulled it with a tr224 just fine..the 212 218 was fun to play around the street with. even on a stock converter it took off harder than the stock cam..oh well just my opinion.. keep kickin a dead horse untill you have to order a custom ground cam or go with what moddoo said with comps low duration high lift cams

Z06 = 207/217 @ .050" .525/.525 on a 116 LSA

Vinci = 210/218 @ .050" .551/.551 on a 112/114/116 LSA


If you don't want that much then I'll go back to what BudHayes3 said and recommend the 206/212 Comp; I'm sure you can get it custom ground with higher lift. PM Patrick G. on ls1tech and he'll spec you a cam that'll be perfect.

its a super low duration, and a really big lift.
