Whose lobes are these ground on? I dont recognize them. Plus they have some near stock LSA's so I figured they are probably pretty sleeper sounding. Check this thread out: https://ls1tech.com/forums/dynamomet...k-results.html

I need to know what lobes they are on. That will help determine a little more about their abilities. So far I would venture to say the 224/224 is the more tried and true approach, but that is in an LS1.

That was kind of what I was hinting at. Even if he was going to sell you one of those for 100$.

the 224 would be the popular choice. I have run one sorta similar to both actually. I liked the 224 better though. It was an XE Comp grind. 224/224 .566/.569 114+2. and a 222/226 .575/.588 113+3

well entry level xer lobes have around .581 lift but that 226 lobe looks odd could be xfi but i would have to check. I lean toward the 224 as well it will just be a bit more sneaky then a 114lsa and have a bit wider band. I shoud make good power. the other cam should still gain a few and looks like a decent fi cam easy to tune.
