Tick Performance SNS TorqueMAX Stage 3 Cam LS1/LS6 or LQ4/LQ9 - Camaro/Corvette
Tick Performance
proudly offers their Elite Series of Camshafts designed specifically for 4.8,
5.3, LS2, LQ4 & LQ9 Engines! Using the latest and greatest technology
available, they've put together a complete line of Camshafts that are designed
to meet every goal, from mild to wild. Their 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 & stock heads with adequate clearance unless otherwise
noted. These cams are designed to maximize power, reliability and valvetrain
longevity.

"SNS" stands for Saturday Night Special, because this
camshaft is going to turn every head at the weekend cruise-ins! The
torque curve produced by the SNS torqueMAX Stage 3 is down-right insane and
you’ll be blown away by the shape of the curve from this larger sized cam.
It will pull cleanly to 6800-7000rpm if need be, but shifting at 6600-6700rpm
is recommended. They strongly suggest the use of their 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 they advertise, so as a result, changes to the LSA or
any other specification of this camshaft are not available.
NOTE: This camshaft utilizes a 3-bolt timing gear pattern.
