SLP Firehawk Cam
SLP still sells it, but I don't know of many people who have it. It's 214/224 with a 115 lsa, .470/.490. It made 350 horse on the firehawk, so I'm curious as to how it performs with a tpi or SuperRam on top? Post your opinions.

I am talking about tpi in the conventional mass production sense, not the t-ram intake.

SLP lists the cam as a 218/224. I just want to know how the thing would perform with a SuperRam or Hi-flow LTR's.

Drakar....tunnel ram!
Seems like it would work fairly well with tpi. The 115Lsa might not even give ya computer problems. Id like to hear how this works with tpi.

I can't say it's the ideal setup yet, (and won't claim any 1/4 times because I haven't been to the track) but with considerable PROM tuning it seems to be making respectable power and is very computer friendly and has a very "streetable" power range. It's absolutely a pleasure to drive in a '89 GMC Step side pickup. It also has a very noticable lope at 725 RPM but idles stable.
The cam is not exactly sold as you specified it came out in the Firehawk though. SLP lists it as:
in: .495" 270 218
ex: .502" 276 224
It has 114 LSA and is ground 3 degree advanced.

I probably didn't answer your question but. . . I am running the exact part number cam you inquired about.
