Tick Performance Stock Converter Cam Kit for LS3/L99 - Camaro/Corvette/G8
Tick Performance proudly offers their Elite Series of Camshafts designed specifically for LS3 & L99 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 COMP Cams or 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.

This Tick Performance Elite Series Camshaft Package for LS3/L99 Engines includes the following:
- Tick Performance Stock Converter Camshaft (TPSCC0013)

This Tick Performance STOCK Converter Camshaft was designed for LS3 & L99 owners that do not wish to install an aftermarket stall converter. This cam is very unique in this regard, as most if not all aftermarket camshafts require some sort of looser stall converter. By keeping the overlap low we have designed a camshaft that can be idled at the stock idle RPM, thus allowing the stock converter to be utilized! This camshaft will not work in vehicles equipped with VVT or DOD. If your vehicle still has these systems, they will need to be deleted at the time of the camshaft install (parts 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.
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.
