Using the latest and greatest technology available, we've put together a complete line of Camshafts that are designed to meet every goal, from mild to wild. Our Elite Series of Camshafts are all manufactured by Cam Motion and are updated with a new version every time an advancement in valvetrain technology becomes available, so they're ALWAYS cutting-edge!  Although we suggest measuring for piston-to-valve clearance during ANY camshaft install, every Elite Series Camshaft is designed to fit in a stock engine \u0026amp; stock heads with adequate clearance unless otherwise noted. These cams are designed to maximize power, reliability and valvetrain longevity.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTick Performance Turbo Stage 2 Camshaft for LS2 Engines\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e235\/231 | .635\"\/.605\" | LSA114+6\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eDesigned for:\u003c\/em\u003e  LS2, LQ4 and LQ9 Engines (346-364ci) with Cathedral Port Heads (as they're equipped with stock)\u003cem\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBasic Operating RPM Range:\u003c\/em\u003e  2400-6400\u003cem\u003e\u003cbr\u003eExpected Horsepower Gains:  \u003c\/em\u003e60-70RWHP over the stock camshaft in a well-optimized setup (the higher the boost, the higher the gains!)\u003cem\u003e\u003cbr\u003eExpected Torque Gains:\u003c\/em\u003e  35-45RWTQ over the stock camshaft in a well-optimized setup\u003cem\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStall Converter Required:  \u003c\/em\u003eYes, 3600RPM+\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eRear Gear Upgrade Required:  \u003c\/em\u003eNo, unless your car has an automatic transmission with a 2.73 gear (we suggest 3.23+ for automatics)\u003cem\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWorks Well with Nitrous:  \u003c\/em\u003eNo, designed for turbocharged applications\u003cem\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWill Pass Most Smog Emissions:  \u003c\/em\u003eNo\u003cem\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eOur Tick Performance Turbo Stage 2 camshaft is an awesome performer, intended for use with 346-370ci single turbocharged motors using a turbocharger with up to a 96mm turbine wheel (especially heavier applications.)  The twist with this camshaft (since its a reverse split) is the torque it produces!  This cam also works very well for you guys with smaller 83-92mm turbine wheels that can’t run a cam with a lot of overlap for fear of choking the turbine wheel, but still want a nice idle note.  Whether it’s a stock cubic inch build, forged bottom end build, or a junkyard motor that you just want to slap a turbo camshaft in and run fast on the street (and at the track) with - this cam is for you!  We strongly suggest the use of our Tick\/PAC Dual Valvesprings and hardened pushrods with this camshaft (sold separately.)  Hundreds of hours were spent developing this camshaft to perform precisely the way we advertise, so as a result, changes to the LSA or any other specification of this camshaft are not available.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOption Guide: Do I need the 3-Bolt Conversion Kit?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn 2007, GM began installing a camshaft in select LSx engines that used one large bolt to attach the timing chain gear.  All Tick Performance Elite Series Camshafts use 3 bolts to attach the timing chain gear, as the earler LSx engines used.  If your engine is a 2007 or newer (or if you're not sure which camshaft style you've got), we suggest adding the 3-Bolt Conversion Kit during checkout.  This Conversion Kit includes everything that you'll need to convert your single-bolt setup over to the 3-Bolt setup (the proper timing chain gear and a set of 3 ARP camshaft bolts.)  If you'd prefer to retain the single bolt style camshaft (not recommended), please place your order with us via phone.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ffffff;\"\u003e1x GM 12586481, 1x ARP 134-1003\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tick Performance","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45634403434636,"sku":"TPT0022","price":389.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0384\/8208\/3980\/files\/turbocam22__41595.jpg?v=1768248172","url":"https:\/\/fiperformance.com\/products\/tick-performance-turbo-stage-2-camshaft-for-ls2-engines","provider":"FI Performance","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
