    looking at cams for the 5.7 ls1 im hopefully getting. im really leaning towards a comp 224/224 .581/.581 112. its basically the same as the tr224 but with higher lift and more agressive lobes(xer lobes). i need it to idle pretty close to stock without any surging etc. this sound clip of a tr224 scared me away from the cam. i dont want it to have to search for an idle on startup or when coming to a stop. is it possible to tune it to my needs? i know people are running the tr224 on 5.3's and they lope pretty damn hard, i figured the 5.7 would eat up the cam more and make it sound more tame. this car dosent sound tame at all

    Yeah itll sound nice on the ls1! Keep in mind that is probably an untuned 224 cam, sounded like they had a hard time getting it goin.

    Here&#39;s a quick vid of that GTO we finished a while back.
    It has a 248cam, 408, heads, pretty much everything you can think of.
    It&#39;s Speed Density tuned and hauls ass&#33;&#33;
    This is a vid of a cold start up first thing in the morning:
    Cold start

    Here is a vid after the cold start to show how radical it is, which it isn&#39;t at all.
    This car had to be perfect, it&#39;s a daily driver.
    Idle quality

    Here&#39;s a shot under the hood:

    I&#39;m running a 220/220 581/581 @ 115. It sounds stock but pulls like an SOB. You can purchase this cam at MTI in Houston with hardened pushrods, Manley springs and titanium reatiners for a little over &#036;700.00
