What do you guys think of this cam for daily driver
a tiney bit of lope? A-ok. Anbything more is a show stopper. I dont mind it snarling a bit, but I dont want a definative hard lope. I also dont want to lose much, if any, low end torque. Most of my driving is between 1800 and 2500 rpm.
216/218 .561 / .562 114+2*
in an Lq9/4L65e w/ long tubes and corsa sport

We ar wondering if a larger cam say a tr224 with some advance would help it breath better on the top end & still give it the usable torque.

cam & tune only, no exhaust. the truck ran a 15.2 stock so all things considered it was a nice improvement. we are @ SEA LEVEL here in louisiana.
he drives this truck everday for work, gas mileage went to 19mpg from

Thats probably gonna lope pretty hard. AND THAT IS A HUGE duration split to be on a N/A DD TRUCK!!. I decent but small cam would be the lpe gt2-3.
But if I were you I would like the comp cam 212/218 highlift version.
