Best cam for Triumph TR6 2.5 engine 1971

[Stevo302]

Ive been told by a good friend that the cam out of a TR5 would be the one to go for. What are other peoples thoughts?

Twin SU's, stage 2 head, 6 branch s/s manifold.

Cheers.

Looks to be fairly comprehensive. Going by that, the early TR6 cam (likely the same as the TR5 one) is a fair bit more "rorty", and will probably put peak HP up around 6000 rather than 5000.

Depends on what you want out of the car really.
