Eps 222/226 cam
 
Anybody run a EPS 222/226 .598 113lsa cam or cam with similar specs?
From what i gather it is a tr224 style with more kick.
EPS has it listed as a ls1 cam.Many LS1 cars cam only made real good power with it.400+

Wondering if anyone has tried this in a truck?

ive been running it for almost a year.

baby cam in a 6.0. good mid range, top end falls off fast past 6200- 300. Lost some power below 2500 or so.

How do you like it? Thats in your 6.0?

that cam would be good if you threw some 243s on your truck and bumped the compression up a bit.. That lift is alittle high for stock 5.3 heads I think

ever dynoed it?
stock 317 heads?

ported heads, 10.6:1 comp

makes about 475-480 flywheel based on logging and I'm guessing around 360-370 rwhp thru 80e.

would be a nice cam on a 5.3, probably pull nice up to 6800.

The lift will be fine, It looks like a good choice for the 5.3

With the prc heads and this cam it would be a monster 5.3.. I have rode in a 5.3 with the same duration but alittle less lift and it pulled pretty well I think it would really run good with what your wanting
