Default How much difference...

Oh here is the deal. I have a cam that i bought from a friend locally. its basically the same as the MTI C1 hammer cam,. but with 110lsa vs. 112/114.
Now, i know that the tight LSA will bring down the power band, but how much is what im wondering. Where will that cam pull. Idle-6000? (BTW 222/222 .566/.566 110lsa.)

When I do this, i will probably also do heads as well. I am looking to get 400 + rwhp with the combo, and right now im considering the Patriot LS6 heads with the factory valves, with the upgraded springs.

And the last thing, will it still remain good driveablilty with a decent tune on it? It gets driven 80 miles everyday, so it needs to be somewhat decent.

Thanks for any input...

i have a 110 LSA cam but with a larger duration (look at my sig) and it still has good driveability. A good tune is a necessity though......! I haven't dynoed my car yet so i dont know where it makes power at but it pulls extremely hard from about 2500 all the way to about 6,000....(i have my shift light set at 5900 right now and it is still pulling). Get used to the rich gas smell though b/c you will have some of that.
