Not having a "cam guru" pay attention, would be horrible. Paying money to have your setup optimized and getting a boiler plate cam.

How do you prevent it or who do you go with?

My selections were based on my limited research and even more limited experience, but what do you guys think of those cams?

I went with this cam because it performed well in two RCSB l92 trucks on this site and the money was right.

So with your cam selection and 6.2L, if I ran the 232/234 .595"/.598" in a 6.0L it would be a good choice?

That would be a big time screamer up top and you would want a stall trans and gears to match it. I would go a little different route since you are lifted geared low and prolly not as much stall. I think you will want more low end. Just IMHO. Justin's truck screams especially on spray and especially for a big truck so its not a bad cam and Zach had it in his truck which was/is a beast.

I would like to spin it up a bit, but I think im just going to have it specked for me. Im trying to make it to the shoot out to really see how these things run.

You want a 4-8* split with those heads. That cam does really well with cathedral port heads, I'm not so sure on rectangle style.

[J Industries]

By that you mean 4 to 8* more on the exhaust side, right?

[pl4yboy]

Yes, correct.

So I found NIB stock flat top pistons with newer style rods. I think im going to mill the heads to 64cc (.030 correct?).

I was using the compression ratio calc and it asked a few things I didnt know.

What is the dish cc of lq4 pistons?
what are the lq9's?
do the pistons come above the deck?

[pl4yboy]

Dish on LQ=-7. LQ9 dish = 0 (flat tops remember) Pistons do not come over the deck.
