LS1/LS6 Tick Performance Stage 1 V2 Turbo Camshaft

This “Version 2” Camshaft is NEW for 2014! Tick Performance proudly presents their brand new Elite Series of Camshafts specifically for LS1 & LS6 Engines! Using the latest and greatest technology available, industry-renowned camshaft expert Martin Smallwood was able to mastermind a complete line of Camshafts that are designed to meet every goal from mild to wild. These Elite Series of Camshafts are all manufactured by COMP Cams and feature a mixture of LXL, LSL and HUC lobes (with a few other tricks up our sleeve, as well.) 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 & stock heads with adequate clearance unless otherwise noted. These cams are designed to maximize power, reliability and valvetrain longevity.

Tick Performance Turbo Stage 1 V2 Camshaft is a fresh re-design for 2014, an entry-level upgrade that is intended for guys who are using a small turbine single turbocharger up to a 68mm turbine wheel. Some examples would be a TC76, TC78, MP70, MP76, ON3 70 or ON3 76 with a race weight under 3700lbs. This cam is intended to be used with a stock cubic inch motor (especially a max effort 4.8L or 5.3L!) This camshafts other intended application is a heavier truck or SUV with up to a 75mm turbine wheel such as a PT7675, 7875, Turbonetics 7675, 7875 or comparable size turbo. You won’t notice much of a difference in idle, but you’ll notice a big improvement when you jump on the throttle! We strongly suggest the use of Brian Tooley Racing 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.
