Default TSP Torquer V2 with LSL lobes...?

i want advice on the TSP cam, i have an easy request but it is friday and they are closed. i want to see what they think and what everyone else thinks. i know the Torquer V2 runs off of XFI lobes and is speced out to:

232/234 .595/.598 with a 112-114 LSA

well what i wanted was basically the same style cam, but with LSL lobes (the same ones they use on the new comp cams LSR cam) and a 113 LSA, is this possible or even worth it? i know the torquer V3 uses LSK lobes but the LSL lobes are the newer ones with soft seat characteristics and high ramping lobes. what do you guys think, anyone had any experience with these lobes?

how much more wear are we talking here, i mean if i have the right springs for the lobes and new lifters, how much more wear could there be?

The Torquer 2 is actually ground on XE-R lobes, not XFI.

With the XFI lobes the closest you can get is a 230(.612") /236(.607") .
Lobes int. 230=#3016, exh. 236=#3037

With the LSL lobes it's a 231(.617")/ 235(.621")
Lobes int. 231=#13018, exh. 235=#13019

Yep Brian is right and get the 231/235 LSL cam blu suggests IMO. If I had a 346 streetcar that would be the exact cam I would run...
