I have a bolt-on LQ9 in my rcsb. I feel the need for more power! LOL My father recently put a TR224-112 in his ccsb 6.0. After driving a stock 6.0, I can definately tell he lost some low-end. I am wantin to do a cam, but no stall. I can get a set of stock 243's for basically free. If I add 243's with a TSP224-112, will I still lose some low end? I love my father's cam from 3000 up, but down low its a dog. What about a 212/218 high lift with heads, wouldn't that pull like crazy all over? I don't have any need or want to spin past 6300ish. I do tow a bass boat and haul a harley occasionally.

 

at least put a trailblazer converter in, I like my 212/218 high lift but not sure how it would be in a LQ9. I plan on running a tr220 should make good torque.

 

you need a stall... dont half *** it...

 

how many times are you going to make this same thread

 

Dude, I'm sorry. But because of my atv wreck, the motor work got put on hold due to broken arms and medical bills. And my last threads ended with the decision to go with the 224, but the more I'm in my father's truck, the more I realize his low-end sucks. I don't wanna lose my low-end like his.

I really don't want a different tc, and the funds aren't there anyways. Right now I'd only be loking at about ~$600 for the cam kit, and the heads are basically free. I'll be doing the install and tune myself.

 

A converter can fix that up real quick, try either a circle D stall or TB stall. Also you should be alot lighter then dads truck is being your a rcsb.

 

Given what you stated, you should go with a Vinci 210/218 .551" 112 lsa cam.

 

What kind of gains would that give me? This should be my last post on this, as I'm gettin the heads sometime in the next week, and the funds for the cam are available right now. A stall is pretty much out of the question.

 

On the LQ9, the 210/218 will outpower any other cam from idle up to 4800 rpms. HotRod magazine did this test a couple years ago.
