Default Finally decided on a cam

To go with my new LS6 heads I was talking to Terry at Patriot and he hooked me up with a great cam. 224/230 581/588 112+2 Working with him was great he cut me a great deal on everything I ordered. So if any of you are plaining on going the heads cam route I suggest going through the guys at Patriot

So hopefully in the next week when everything gets in I will get getting all the new goodies on the truck and to the dyno and the track. Hopeing for some 11's. Tired of being in the 14's

I have it written down somewhere, but it was under $400, and I am sure that they would give you a great deal, just call and ask.

Yeah, the compression would drop by a staggering amount...

No instead of milling them, they filled in the combustion cambers with some kind of metal, making them 59cc. They said that makes my compression stock.
