Chop Monster LS3 Camshaft — 6.0L \u0026 6.2L Rectangular-Port LS | TSP-BFD-LS3","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Texas Speed B.F.D. Chop Monster LS3 Camshaft is a naturally aspirated grind for 6.0L and 6.2L LS engines fitted with L92\/LS3-style rectangular-port cylinder heads. Developed with Zac Mertens, known as the Chop King from Hoonigan, the B.F.D. series exists to deliver the most violent idle Texas Speed could build into a cam that still carries big power through the midrange and top end. The 110 degree lobe separation angle is what gives it that signature sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTexas Speed estimates a gain of 80 or more horsepower and recommends a compression ratio of 10:1 or higher. The cam requires TSP\/PAC .660\" dual valve springs, a stall converter of at least 3,200 rpm in automatic vehicles, and a 3.42 or steeper rear gear is listed as optimal. The operating range is 2,000 to 7,000 rpm. Texas Speed says the cam can be daily driven with the proper tune, and a custom tune is required after installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDuration at .050\": 229\/246\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eValve lift:
