## Overview

The Texas Speed TSP 228R camshaft is engineered for 4.8 to 6.0 LS engines, featuring a 228° duration and .600" lift with a 112° LSA. It delivers a substantial 45-50 rwhp increase, optimized for street use with a lower RPM powerband. Compatible with beehive and double valve springs, it demands professional tuning and a larger stall converter for automatics, making it a top choice for millennial LS enthusiasts seeking reliable, high-performance upgrades.

## Description

The 112LSA helps to bring the camshafts powerband lower in the rpm band. The lower LSA also creates a slightly rougher idle. The 228R camshaft is a very popular camshaft for customers wanting a very streetable camshaft that makes approximately 5-7 more horsepower than the 224R camshaft. Dyno testing has shown the 228R camshaft to make a solid 45-50rwhp gains. The 228R camshaft is large enough that we recommend a larger than stock stall converter in automatic cars. Tuning will also be required in both automatic & manual applications.

Review: Wow! - Ear to ear smile on my face, On a run tune got about 580 miles on it no issues. Im getting better mpgs than before 😂 assuming because of the tunner did a pretty above par job. Couple more things and its dyno time. (Update)Jan 18, 2026 zero failures on kit only failure was my number 7 cam lobe was cooked from bad bad lifter. I bought ls3 lifters. 4 have failed. Cam being repaired and engine now being fully built. The cam head combo on this kit has held up strong! Worth it!
Review: Fantastic cam kit. - Awesome kit for a good price. Everything was there and had no issues with any of the valve stem seals, cam, or duel valve springs regarding installation. Did this on a 99’ Trans Am, LS1.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will this work with stock rocker arms?**
A: Have to have a trunion upgrade kit for it to work with no issues

**Q: Will this work in a 2016 5.3 Eco-trek**
A: No, this will not fit GEN V engines.

**Q: Will this work with stock valve springs? Is a 2500 stall too low?**
A: Hello,

This cam is not compatible with stock valve springs and is recommended for use with the PAC1219 or .660 dual spring kits along with hardened pushrods.  I recommend at least a 3000-3200 stall speed converter with this cam, with a 3600 stall speed being preferred.  I have previously ran this grind in a personal combo with a 3200 stall speed and feel that it could have benefited more with the 3600.  A 2500 would be far too low in my opinion for the powerband of this cam.

**Q: Would this be good for a 98 Tahoe rwd?**
A: no

I received everthing on time and started the project however I misplaced on of the valve guide seals. I want to appologize for sending a message requesting a replacement. My MIstake! I double checked everything and am sure I received everthing extremely fast. Thanks Michigan Motorsports.
