TR 224 Cam, what parts to go with?
Ok i've read a lot of mixed answers as to what setups to run with this cam so i want some more opinions. I will be installing a TR 224/224 112 lsa cam soon and i'm not quite sure if i should just go with Comp 918's or go ahead and get the PRC or Patriot Dual SPrings kit? I'm planning on getting an LS6 oil pump and LS2 chain. Are hardened pushrods a must? Any other recommendations? I just want ur opinion on what setup i should run with this particular cam

See what is included in the TR cam kits...those are the parts you should be using.
918 springs
7.400" hardened pushrods
you can also think about titanium retainers
Being a '98 the oil pump is a good thing.

You can get all those parts as a kit from Thunder. I would recommend the titanium retainers as well. I used the 918 springs in mine for quite a while and had no problems, they are perfect for that cam.
