212/218 is a great cam and specially with a higher lobe you'll have torque all over

 

From what I have been told is that the cam that I am trying sell is exclent for a turbo set up, it's a 218/221 with a 116 LSA. It has a lil bit more lift-dur then the Z06 cam.

 

It would be good for Turbo with set of cam number?

 

It will not good for cam size for my truck dd and tow sometimes. Want have good torque, power and ready set up for turbo.

 

If that is what TSP told ya, most of the guys here told ya, that sounds like a good cam for what you want to do.......... It will make good power with out the FI and good power with it.... You will drive your self crazy thinking about it.. DO IT

Allright thanks for share with cam lsa.

The cam spec that affects Forced induction efficiency the most is overlap, to which in most cases LSA is a good indicator. The narrower the LSA (smaller number) typically means the camshaft would have more degrees of overlap. That would be the period when the exhaust valve is closing and the intake valve begins to open. In a forced induction application the more duration overlap present in the cam's specs, the more forced intake charge will be blown out the exhaust - read loss of boost, fuel, and efficiency. To minimize this you want to minimize overlap, to a degree. LSA is not always an accurate indicator of overlap, as variables such as lobe duration and lobe ramp/lift rate have to be looked at as well. You will also want to look for a cam that has a nice long exhaust duration, 6-8* greater than your intake, remember that your exhaust valve and cylinder head port are smaller than on the intake side.

 

I wonder what stock size of cam and lsa on 5.3?

 

116 i think
