Hey guys, right now I have a TR 224/224 114 in my Camaro and I was wanting to know what is the largest cam that I can go with without flycutting. Thanks guys.

The Thunder Trex and TSP Magic Stick fit. My TSP 235/240 is a bit smaller, but it fits plus you can use Comp 918 springs with it.

I upgraded from a TR224 114 also, man you're going to like the difference this makes!

Thanks guys I appreciate it. Yeah CAL I do love this cam, but from what I've heard this cam is a whole lot better once you upgrade the heads (which I can't do (no cash) I am thinking about getting a larger cam sometime soon and want to sell this one and needed to know how big I can go without any worries.

Thanks again

Not sure what you mean here, but I gained roughly 30rwhp and 20rwtq over my 224/228 cam with just the X3 being the change.
