Boost Cam
#12
Its a RCSB 2WD Not THAT heavy for a truck.
I plan on putting a 3k stall in it, stock for now. The plan is 650 lift springs and push rods, maybe work the 862's a little as well down the road.

Op, I ran 10.97 @ 125 with a TU1, th400, 3.42 gears, bones stock heads, intake and tb, with a tiny 76/64 on3 turbo on 14 psi on pump 93. No longer running that turbo bc it was done at 14 psi but it was enough for 10's

Took a look at speed inc, they have a 228/228 turbo cam as well, TU1.5
I might be able to have my cake and eat it too..
I dont understand what makes a cam a turbo cam..People claim say.. an ls9 cam 211/230, is better for boost..other say 212/212. You would think a boost specific cam would be one way or the other..whats the pros and cons of having a split number cam?

Low overlap, reduce cylinder bleed off and reversion. Generally don't need a bunch of duration. It's forced induction so you don't need to try and scavenge as much as possible on the intake stroke as a NA setup. A duration split slightly favoring the exhaust doesn't seem to hurt. Least that's my idea and understanding of a boost cam.
