Cam is new, installed in the block but never run. Spec'd out by HiTech Motorsports. This cam is for Trickflow Twisted Wedge heads and is meant to be used with a stock shortblock, and a Performer RPM/ Trick Flow Track Heat/ SysteMax intake and 3.73 gears. Also a good cam for a dual plane carb intake. This is a street cam for a street car, and will make GREAT power from 1500rpm up to 6000 rpm.
Cam was originally $335 from HiTech. Selling for $220. PM me if you are interested.

Should be a pretty stout cam, similar to the one a run but a tad bigger. That intake lobe is no joke!

That's good to know since you put down damn good numbers for your combo.

Did they say if this would work with the stock TFS TW Valve Springs? I'm pretty sure TFS says only up to .550 lift

Upgraded springs will be needed. It even says "springs required" on the cam card.

I think what he was reffering to is that TW heads allow you to run up to .550 lift before the valve starts to hit the piston.

This cam was specifically designed to work with a stock short block so that taken into account by Hi-Tech. It has been installed and clayed in a motor and has came within specs.
The lift ratings from the companies are conservative. For example I have ran 2.02 Edelbrock heads on stock short blocks that have not been fly cut with no issues. Lift is not the only factor that determines when/if a valve will contact the piston.

Still for sale.
Check Camara90's sig, his numbers are damn good with basically a stock shortblock.
