Default TR224/227 in N/A LS1?

I have a chance to buy a used thunder racing 224/227 563/569 on a 114 lsa. I don't plan to supercharge my engine. How will this cam do in my N/A LS1 as compared to TR224? I will have a slightly ported 241 heads and 918 springs to go with it. Thanks for any input.

Direct quote from site:

"Thunder Racing Custom Split Pattern Camshaft for Nitrous/Supercharger applications- 224/227 .563/.569 114 LSA (This cam will check in the 226 range on the exhaust lobe.) 2200-6800 RPM Power Band. Excellent mid-range & high RPM power. Automatic cars require computer tuning and it is recommend for optimum results on manual transmission cars. Due to the fast ramp rate of this camshaft, the use of 1.8 rockers is not recommended."

That's what I've got in my car right now. Ran a best of 12.32 with the mods in sig excluding the LS6 intake, SFC, and LCA's.

It's not just a supercharger cam. It actually has less split than alot of other N/A cams out there. The 114 will help with driving charecteristics. If your looking for a nice "mild" cam, this would be a good one.
