FOR SALE custom grind lo3 TBi cam and lifters
It's a custom grind hydraulic roller cam from delta cams 203 duration 450 lift both intake and exhaust. The cam was pulled from my 89 rs, and it only has 8500 miles on it. I also will include the lifter guide plates and locking girdle. I am asking $150 shipped, and I payed almost $400 for the cam and lifter kit. I will have pics soon.

That's actually about as big as you can go without any prom tuning. I ran it with the stock prom and it ran great.

Here are a couple of pics
I also found a timing chain, cam and crank sprocket that I had, so that will go as well.

No sir, they are still available
Here is a link to a video of what the car sounded like with the cam in it.

Re: FOR SALE custom grind lo3 TBi cam and lifters
yes it's still available. I never was able to get the car to a dyno so i'm not sure on actual hp increase. The lift on the stock cam is only 234 intake 257 exhaust, so it's a substantial difference between the two. With this cam and a good tune i'm sure 30-40 hp will be easy to obtain.

Re: FOR SALE custom grind lo3 TBi cam and lifters
It's cool Kronos I literally just paid for an LT1 cam. I'm kind of glad I didn't double bid myself on this. Good luck on the sale, I'm sure someone will take you up on this.

come on man, this isnt really the place to critisize someone's product they're trying to sell. Between your post to this and to smallblockling, you're being a **** to put it politely.

Re: FOR SALE custom grind lo3 TBi cam and lifters
If you actually READ my post, you would see that I was not saying anything bad about the part he has for sale and I actually just made an observation to it sounding like the JD I got in the shop, and that it would sound better if he didnt have the exhaust cut-out at the Y-pipe like it says, thats all, I honestly could not even hear a cam in the video.

Yes, it will run with stock heads. When I had it in the car I had stock heads.

Re: FOR SALE custom grind lo3 TBi cam and lifters
man if there would be a good power gain i would love to get this but... the thing that kind of turns me away from it is the video. you dont have a video with an actual exhaust on it and that cam. that is a video with no exhaust right. it just sounds like there is no up and down idle sounds to it its just steady.
#45
Re: FOR SALE custom grind lo3 TBi cam and lifters
well im the kind of guy that likes to have power but also wants my car to sound awsome. i like going through a tunnel with the windows down and hearing the deep rumble of my exhaust now. im not saying that that cam didnt sound good, im just saying that the exhaust covered up the sound of the cam because it was out of the Y. ive been looking everywhere for a video of a v8 with that same grind cam but cant find any. that and i really dont know if it will be much of an improvment for my 305 TPI or not.

Re: FOR SALE custom grind lo3 TBi cam and lifters
^ The exhaust system (or lack of) is the real culprit there, as even my '98 LS1 would sound horrible if I pulled the exhaust off, what engine wouldn't, really? I would never recommend a camshaft for anyone without delving into DCR/SCR first. But as far as the sound in the video, that shouldn't deter your decision, because his exhaust is off, and should sound like that....

No I don't have any other vids with the exhaust on with that cam, but you're not going to get a choppy idle with anything under 214 in duration.
