I chose the TR224/114 because of the driveability. I went with the Manley Valve Springs, Ti Retainers and 4130 Pushrods from Scoggin Dickey Parts Center. Also purchased the LS6 Oil Pump and a Rollmaster Double Chain as well. All said and done, I am under $900 for everything and will be installing it myself.

I chose the RPM2 cam becuase I got a great deal, great customer service, and a lot of power.

Of course, that was way before I started working at RPM. You can get my unbiased opinion on the "old board" under the cam reviews.:cool:

[Blacker]

Here is my total list:

TR224 Cam - $386.99
Valvesprings and Ti Retainers - $178.95
Pushrods - $92.00
TR LS6 Oilpump - $134.99
Rollmaster Chain - $65.60
LS1 Keepers - $16.32
Valvecover Gaskets - $11.18
Total - $886.03

if you want to wait a bit, im doing a guide on h/c like i did on the induction/exhaust shit. it'll give you all the info you need.

in a nut shell go with what blacker said.

Go with what blacker said or give allan from futral motorsports a call... (sorry if they aren't a sponsor, but it appears besides Tom, there are no sponsors yet).

Futral Motorsports - ask them about soild roller cams. I'm going to switch out this baby cam (Comp XER 224/228) for a bigger soild roller cam next year. :cool:

Agreed good starting point. If the car is an 01+ can skip the new oil pump IMO.

[airmanb2b]

Ya, sorry guys. I haven't got around to doing my sig yet. 99 M6 car.

[Blacker]

You can skip the Valve Keepers as well. My car is 6.5 years old and doing it for piece of mind. Same with the Oil Pump.
