I had that cam, and sold it. I kind of regret that to be honest
I would not expect too much of a difference between that cam and a 224/224. It would come down to exhaust system. The 224/230 would work better with cats, or some other restrictive exhaust.

While the exhaust system plays a role, it's really a factor of how well the exhaust port of the cylinder head flows. If your exhaust port is very efficient and your intake port to ex port % flow is good, alot of the time a single pattern cam is more efficient. As you can see there is alot of depends in choosing a cam and one should be chosen based off the sum of your parts and mainly the flow capability of the cylinder head.
