I agree with you Martin, sort of what GM and LPE do with there positive displacement blower cams. My 224 cam was not ideal but it was in there and better then the stocker.
You can have some chop even with only 220* and some negative overlap. My 224 cam checked in with -4 but all you have to do is pull the timing at idle and she will chop.

You got all the tuning knowledge though on these set-ups, I'm just an ant to a giant in that regard!
It seemed to work well!
I have a 222/240 118+4 and a 230/248 119+5 for positive displacement cams.

not trying to hijack the thread but it's a little off track. With a small positive displacement blower like the mp112 do you want your gearing to be on the taller side to take advantage of the low rpm torque?

I had a whim that you were in a round about way saying the same thing I was. You got all the tuning knowledge though on these set-ups, I'm just an ant to a giant in that regard!

If I had my choice to choose a cam for your engine it would be one of my positive displacement cams, but that said since you asked about the two cams you brought up, I still think the Stage One would work just fine. It would give you a little more burble/lope at idle also.

So will the stage one help me better to reach my 500hp goal, or should I go with a positive displacement cam. I do love the sound of a cam, but if a little chop/blurp is going to ruin my power goal I can let it go. All you guy's at Tick have not let me down, so I trust what you suggest!
BTW I called you Dave in one of my other posts....sorry TJ!

Well, I guess that settles it. I will go with the stage one. What heads would you recamend for this settup? Or will my factory heads be able to handle my needs?
Thanks

Mp112 rotor knock or slap with a cam Lol, yeah I bet they do. What kind of idle can I expect with the stage 1 cam? I know I cant have a hard hitting cam, but I would like some kind of chop to it. Would this cam do that for me? I also figured that it would help out a little up top when the MP112 starts to run out of steam.
