From what I understand, the t3 is supposed to be a revised version of the t2. T3 is supposed to have a faster ramp rate.

I was going to run a t3 in my 6.0. My friend had a 230/236 .581/.581 on a 114 custom comp laying around his shop. I went with that instead.

If your stock 243's then the first one will do well.. As for what lobes the cams are ground on, I am not sure.. A super aggressive lobe will wear out springs faster..

Get tue converter restalled to a 4000 and go more aggressive on the cam! You will end up doing it anyway might aswell do it once

Going with the v.2, and after this cam, springs, and 4" exhaust I'm
Done with the truck for a while. Ive been looking at a few c6 and c5 zo6 so the truck will be on the back burner it I find a vet. I will keep everyone updated on the cam swap progress though.

I agree and prefer the V2 for the stock headed combos. it's not that the V3 doesn't make a bit more power, because it does. It's just the slight power gains on a stock headed combo from that extra lift is very minute, and will wear out springs a bit faster so I like the lower lift on these.

Now with a ported head that doesn't back-up until well after .650" lift, the TorquerV3 would be my choice, hands down!

Just looked it up, and a couple days. We ran out of that v2 on the 112LSA somehow so we're having Comp grind it with a rush and they'll ship it directly to you!
