Tick Performance proudly offers their Elite Series of Camshafts designed specifically for LS1 & LS6 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!

Want usable power across the board that doesn't require you turn 6500+RPM to make peak power? You'll love this camshaft! "SNS" stands for Saturday Night Special, because this camshaft is going to turn every head at the weekend cruise-ins! This SNS torqueMAX Stage 2 Camshaft is perfect for guys looking for the lopey idle and peak power numbers of a larger camshaft without giving up any driveability or TORQUE down low in the RPM range. If power UNDER the curve is what you're looking for, this cam is for you! 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.
Don't see the size pushrod you need? These are available in anything from 7.000" through 11.550" long in 0.025" increments. Contact us for details!
7.400" is the standard LS length, but any of the following can affect pushrod length required and each application may be different.
- Cylinder Head Deck Thickness
- Block Deck Height
- Valve Stem Length
- Rocker Arm Brand
- Cam Shaft Base Circle Diameter
- Lifter Design, Etc.
We highly recommend that you measure you particular application to determine correct pushrod length due to the number of variables involved.
We cannot recommend a length based strictly on combination and the only way to determine required length is to measure appropriately.
NOTE: This camshaft utilizes a 3-bolt timing gear pattern.
NOTE: The valve spring kit included is designed for stock style valve guides ONLY. The valve spring kit will not work with aftermarket bronze valve guides. Please contact prior to purchase if another spring kit is needed for your application.
