Are you on Facebook? The 2 guys who've ran and experimented the most with TSP cams in Canada are in Saskatoon.but they're not on here. You want to hunt up Steven Cooper and Devon Brisbin. If you ask Chris at Player 3 he'll have their phone numbers.Both are good guys and Steven right now holds the record at 11.29 (Castrol) for the fastest Ram in Canada.

Yup just got in contact with Player 3 already, He's actually saying stage 1 is better for my needs over the Thump cam as I will loose low end with it.

So That was short lived... lol... Just sucks I need to buy an HP tuner now. another 400$ .... yeah... lol....

If you really want to run the TSP Chop Monster" and not sacrifice the low end grunt, a new torque converter would remedy that problem. With your trans being a 545RFE a 3000rpm stall converter would really be the only way to get it moving with the 220°/230° duration @ .050" or else it will be a **** out of the hole without some 4.56 gears out back.

I have had great results with the Texas Speed Stage 2 camshaft. The specs are good and it works quite well in a daily driven 5.7/545RFE combo with 3.92 gears.

TSP Stage 2 Camshaft
218°/226° .582"/.582" Centerline: 112+3

Their stage 2 camshaft has the exact same lift as the stage 1 but with 4° more duration at .050" lift. With proper tuning this camshaft idles nicely and cruises just fine but makes good power.

Unfortunately im literally out of money and the Stall converter upgrade will be next year at the earliest as I did the 4.56 gear swap this year instead.

I'm actually in Airdrie,lol. Chris has been my tuner for years though,and once the headers are on my wifes Challenger,it'll be up to his place for tuning,if i point my truck north,it'll damn near drive to his place by itself,lol. He's easy to get to,if you come in from the south on the QE2,he's only about a 1/2 dozen minutes into Edmonton from the south. You'll have to try to make it out to Castrol for one of their Friday night street legals,you won't find much more entertainment for 40 bucks on a Friday night.As long as you get there by 8:30 you'll get through tech,but coming out of Wainwright even if you leave at 5:30 you should be there by 7:00,lol
