How does it drive compared to the TR224? Bottom end?

18HP and 8TQ up top, but how about through the entire RPM range where it REALLY matters?

I'm in the middle of putting one in right now with stock heads. It should be running by sunday. I will be doing some tuning for Ltrims and things before going to the dyno. Gonna try and dyno on the 18th if possible. I'll be sure to post results and a sound clip.. BTW, I will be spraying a 100 shot on it as well.

Took alittle time to get idle good at 950rpm.Now it idles with very little lope.Hot and Cold starts are perfect.
The car needs a little more gas to take off,nothing major.Drivabilty is just as good as the 224.I can lug the motor at 1500rpm with no problems.The Cam is more suited for 4000rpm and up.The graph look the same as the 224 below that then the 236 takes over above.Peeks at the same points.
At the track I gained 3mph.
