so ive been doing some research on cams for my 6.0l but it got me thinking what is the biggest cam you can run in these motors with out having to fly cut the pistons or running into problems?

How big are you wanting to run? I highly doubt in that lifted truck you'll want to run one big enough to come close to hitting. Plenty of guys are in the upper 230s and over 600 lift

for some reason i had my mind set on the tsp tsunami cam. since being carbed it didnt matter how wild it really was. the specs are 235/240 .648"/.609. i am not 100% now that i want to lift it anymore oppose to having a quick little 4x4 street truck. right now i have a local guy building me a 3400-3600 stall.

Not enough stall for that cam.

My buddy has the same cam, tsp ms4, and hes running pi3800 and he says it still needs more stall.

well i guess that just sucks. i guess i will have to do a little more research on cams that will be good for around 3500 stall. any recomendations?

Gears and tire height as well as vehicle weight also play a big factor, but I think something along the lines of 226/230 or around there would work well with that stall and motor.

That cam is JUUUUNK UNLESS IN A G8, it holds the g8 record right now cam only... my buddy put it in his l92 headed ls2 with 3800 stall and ran. 04. Faster than his stock times at sar!!!
