Been a while since I played with 6's,,,
S pistons ,,, maybe a bit more compression T cams ,,, not so much ,,, s cams fun... Tensioner better for engine,,, performance no 40's ... Appropriate size for specs Nice street engine if in good shape... |

S pistons produce a higher compression ratio, which T cams aren't meant to handle well. They work OK (just), though. Gives a better bottom end. You really need to know the valve and port configuration to determine what would be best.

T cams are not really an upgrade over any other cam. Unless you have no cams.
