Driveability issues with comp 224/230 cam?
Wanna here some input from other people who have this cam, its the 224/230 581 592 114 XER cam. Put it in, car made pretty good power, but surges and bucks pretty bad between 1k and 2k give or take. I didn't expect that out of a 114 lsa cam. Is this the nature of this cam or is there more left in the tuning?

I have a similar cam - 224/230, but more lift (.609/.604), but in a 383. However, this cam drives very well. The only time I get some bucking is in my work's parking garage going downhill. Sometimes doesn't like to be babied at 10 miles per hour. But, that's an easy fix - just push the clutch in and it behaves. Around town, school zones, parking lots - no issue at all. I also have 3.42 gears. I'd say look at more tuning it it's still bad.
