Not sure I understand your question.....Are you saying you want to know what the specs mean? If so:

224 = intake duration in degrees @ .050" lift
228 = exhaust duration in degrees @ .050" lift

.581 = intake valve lift in inches
.588 = exhaust valve lift in inches

110+2 LSA = lobe separation angle with 2 degrees advance ground in
7.425 PR = recommended pushrod length in inches

In other words the cam is ground in with 2 degrees advance already in it...kinda making it into a 112 LSA. Raising the LSA moves the power range into a lower rpm. Thats what I understand about it.
