    Vinci trucker cam kit

    I guess I'll go ahead and put this up so if it sells it will motivate me to go ahead and yank it from my LS1. Cam is 216/224 .551/.551 115LSA and will come with the comp 918 springs, retainers and pushrods. I'm going to swap to a bigger cam with duals so this has got to go. Would make a killer boost cam or be excellent in a 4.8 or 5.3 NA setup too. It has 12k miles on it in an LS1 and was nasty in the midrange. It would rip 2 lengths on my cousins patriot head 6.0 MS3 6speed setup from a 50 roll before he could reel me in and I had an A4! The pushrods might not work since my motor has LS7 lifters in it but I won't need them.

    $325 shipped...

    Also this is in a motor that isn't being used right now so mileage won't change.

    Soneone should give me input on how this cam would work on my truck... I like the idea of stockish idle fo sho!

    I don't know if it would have stockish idle even in your LS2 but it would crush til 6k in that motor. They put down equal peak but better under the curve than the TR224 cams. I think youtube has some clips of this cam...it loped harder than my cousins 228R on a 114 in my LS1.

    This cam is awesome. Had it my old white truck. 5.3 with longtubes and dual exhaust. Sounded badass. I have a clip on my youtube

    I may have to snag this. Did you ever tow with this cam in the truck?

    bah...once again Pat G fails to impress me with his cam specs. That Saab is no light weight and for a daily I'd go with the EPS 222/226 on a 114

    also to the other guy this wasn't in a truck...1999 B4C camaro. Should tow like a beast in a 5.3.

    That 222/226 is similar to the "rob" cam the tbss guys run and its a pig imo cause I beat a tbss with that cam... But I have bigger stall and he was rwd... Longtubes are coming first... Then cam I wanna be as sleeperish as I can without hurting the launches cause thats where I shine so far...

    Those EPS lobes are very aggressive I bet it would walk all over most other cams in that size. It's what I am planning on running in my SSS...
