I run a 224/224 563/563 on a 112, which I know works but is not optimal for F/I. I cant say yes or no on your particular setup but I personally think your in the ballpark.

Thats pretty big. Is it a serious setup or mild?

those @.050 specs are awful big for a turbo setup only wanting 7-8 hundred. With how well the factory heads and intakes flow, 215-220* @.050 is more than plenty

i got the cam for a different project, so i am guessing i should sell it and get a smaller cam?
