Thrasher cam

[dukedusterwrx]

Just wondering if anyone has used the thrasher cam in their car. To me this cam seems a little rad. I am seriously considering the purchase of this cam since i am port and polishing upper and lower intakes and the heads. The specs of this cam are:

Duration at .050 =
222 degree intake/222 degree exhaust

Intake Lift =
.354 (.566 lift with stock 1.6:1 rocker ratio) :eek:

Exhaust Lift =
.354 (.566 lift with stock 1.6:1 rocker ratio)

Lobe Separation = 114.0

oh and one more thing does anybody have the desktop dyno files for the 3800 II motor

Lotta lift, that's for sure. But what's crazy about the 114 lobe sep? That makes it better for cars with FI or Nitrous. Other cams come with a 116 lsa.

my bad i meant the eek symbol to go on the lift lol

i think the cam i have forsale wil do better and mine is proven.. bigger is not always better.

btw.. that is serious lift.. good luck with tuning

[dukedusterwrx]

well what mods do you curenty have and what cam and also how much

The LS on that cam is not for forced induction. At 222 degrees duration and 114 lsa it still has a lot of valve overlap which is bad for forced induction cars. I think it sounds like a great NA cam. And in no way would i consider it mild. The lift should be ok with modification the valve seal pedastools and better springs. I havent tried this cam but it looks pretty nice.
