What sort of power increase might I see with this cam swap? I had a TR224 on a 112 but when my engine spun a bearing, I decided to go slightly bigger. So I'm installing this cam:
Now before you say, "Well that's dumb, the cam is barely bigger", keep in mind I sold my TR224 for $250 and bought this cam for $150. My engine is already tore down to a bare block, so it's like I'm getting paid to do a cam swap! At the same time, I'm milling my heads down to 62 CCs, so that should get my compression up close to 11:1 . I wanted to get a few opinions as to what sort of power increase I might see, especially since I'm freshening the motor at the same time.
