    Hi Guys,

    This cam is going in a heavy truck w/5.3L. The cam is a 212/216-.557/.561-114+2.
    It's not exactly what I would pick for a customer wanting a turbo-cammed truck.
    Something along the lines of a 218/218 or a 218/216.

    Does anyone have any dyno numbers or butt dyno results with a similar cam?
    If they do and it turned out ok, I may just use this cam for the turbo'd truck.

    thanks,
    allen

    Thats pretty close to my cam Allen, Although i have not had any dyno time yet, S.O.P.T. was Awesome and it was one upgrade that really brought the truck to life, Also has a nice lope at the idle speed you set mine at and sounds throaty and athoritve at speed. seems to really compliment the turbo well!

    Allen, we have used a little bigger reverse split with very good results;
    226/220 .570.563 115lsa. It has a near stock idle and pulled big time mid range.
