Howdy gang,

So I'm finishing up my Lancer rebuild, but am in need of a new camshaft. There's a lot of information/options out there, but I don't need anything radical.

My engine is an '89 TII CB, mild modifications.

Stage III FWD calibration

2.5" opened up exhaust with stock 2.25" wastegate

Very mild port/polish on the head and manifolds I did years ago myself. Nothing crazy, just smoothing out some areas mostly.

Max boost I run is 15psi via MBC


I have the PT lifters and shims in the head right now, so I was hoping to be able to keep them instead of getting a grind. However, I don't know where to source a camshaft from. I've heard that the TBI cams work with PT lifters and are actually a slight upgrade for stock/mild builds.

Can anyone shed some light on where I might find a good cam for this thing and what I should be looking for? The casting marks on my original cam are as follows: 7849, 244, L-7

If all else fails I'll probably get a regrind kit from FWDPerformance, but I'll be losing the PT lifters and I'm trying not to do that as the block just got rebuilt with forged pistons. I'd like to get power above 5000rpm if possible lol.
