That cam has similar specs to my Comp LSR 265 grind though the Lunati has a little more lift.


I have LT's, HF cats, CircleD 3200 and 4.11's and love the way it pulls of the line.

It pulls very good up top as well.

What size tires/wheels are you running? Do any towing??

Im curious as to what kind of power it will make at the wheels..anybody guess what my current setup is making now??

Those are impressive numbers, my truck has the factory dual 2.75" exhaust..wonder how much difference there would be between that and his 3.5" single?? I wouldnt think too much..which cam would you pick for my application? The lunati 217/223 or the tsp 220??

bobfig 01-29-2015 09:19 AM

for me i like being a little different and would go voodoo as a lot of people use the tsp220.

yes i would think i would up the exhaust to 3.5" all the way back also.

Fast_six oh 01-29-2015 05:24 PM

Id like to keep it true duals..only other thing ill add is a h-pipe..i would think 3" Duals should be efficient or would stick with 2.5" duals??

bobfig 01-29-2015 05:33 PM

well if you like the way it sounds now then i would leave everything the way it is till you get the torque converter and cam in.

Fast_six oh 01-29-2015 06:07 PM

Ok, yeah i like the way it sounds now, but i was unsure which setup would perform better after the cam converter etc..i assume the 3" duals would but would they be worth switching from what i have now (2.75")
