Default MMS 224/224 .570/.570?

Anyone running this camshaft. Morgan Motorsports made a post a few months ago about the new 224 cams, but I haven't seen any further info on them. They were supposed to have a little less ramp in them to help out with springs as compared to a TR cam or XER lobes. Getting bout time to buy a camshaft and wanted to get your thoughts on this one. Thanks!

I picked up 43 HP when I added that cam to my car. I am still running it now.

I'd like some more info on this cam, as well. I've been looking at it and the TR224, and as John pointed out, I too remember MMS saying the cam utilized a "spring-saver" design.

Talked to someone that had the MMS 224v2 (not the newest one but the one before) he was happy with the gain. His 99 SS made ~383rwhp with LS1 intake and SLP headers other back stuff. Car sounded incredible. I also saw cam doctor data comparing the area under the curve between my SRP spec'd 224 XE-R and the MMS 224v2. The ramp rates were pretty similar with the XE-R being a tad more. The XE-R had more lift. Overall the XE-R had a little more area under the curve based on the graph of the profile of the cam lobe. I would consider the MMS224 cam along with the TR224.

The lobes have to be pretty similiar...MMS and TR.
Lifts are actually less with the TR setup.
