Sounds good!

What are the specs? or better yet, what was the intended usage you gave Patrick? I'm thinking about finally stepping up from my 226 cam, but with stock heads and A4 I don't want any tuning or driveability issues that I don't have now. Yours sounds pretty damn smooth (rpm wise) for a new install...No surge or semi stalling out at all?

who are you passing the 226 on to now? or are you going to hang it on the wall? the specs on this cam are 233/239 614/607 111+2. i also at the same time put on a pair of patriot stage 2 ls6 heads w/ 2.02/1.57 valves and the flycutting was done by cartek. it def. likes to stall out on me sometimes but thats kinda expected being as i dont have it tuned yet. once it is warm it sits right at 800 rpm where my 224 did though. which i guess answers the guy aboves question also. yes i had a tr224 before.

Highest bidder, lol....

One of the previous owners said he'd like to have it chromed and make a trophy out of it or something, lol. It's definitely been around, but has gone easy 11's in everything it has ever been in. That's why I almost hate to mess with it.
