Talking TSP Texas Giant in a 5.3?
Has anyone ever done it? Haha

248/254, .611"/.613"



Would a 5.3 even turn over with this big of cam in it?

That cam is big for a 408. It sounds good though.

You should get it on a 112 and try it though, hell why not go on a 108, you might get some power out of it if you can get it to idle below 1500.
