Default 206/212 lope? Heavy or not?

How bad would the lope be on the Comp 206/212 on a 112LSA be? I downloaded some clips of the 212/218 114LSA and it didnt sound bad at all. When the engine was warm, you could tell it was there. Anybody hear the 206/212 in a 5.3?

I haven't heard the 208/212 but, I assume that it will sound stock. I think someone on this board has one.

Stupidfast,

How did you like your 212/218 before you got the stall?? Was it a dog down low or did it somewhat compare to stock? Id kinda like to get the 212/218 and in time I will do a new converter. Just wondered how the truck acted before the stall. Have you dynoed yet?

The cam with stock tuning made 330rwhp with a 5.3 and ported heads, 350 with a stock 6.0 with stock tuning, 476 with 9lbs of boost, and 499 with 11lbs of boost.
I couldn't tell much low-end loss. However, I did get misfire codes and MAP sensor codes. I would get the stall first.

I would say a Yank 3000 or a little larger. There is nothing wrong with the smaller cam and you could still get the 3000.

How bad will it act for a while without a converter. Being is, I already have the cam. I got it from a guy here in town new in the box. I cant wait any longer and want to put the cam in!

Not bad at all. However, I think you will like the converter better.

I do a bit of towing. Will that 3000 be a problem or should I look at a 2600?

Look at Yank's website, I am pretty sure you can do towing with the 3000. If you don't tow anything heavy I would stick with the 3000, but look ask the experts first. I would for sure go with the 208/212 cam for towing.
