Default Camshaft Choice??
Vehicle 2000 Camaro Z28, going with forged internals, approx 8.9-9.0 compression with AFR 225cc heads. Procharger D1SC with twin intercoolers and 8 rib setup for 12-14 psi

CompCams quoted me this:

224/234 581/598 with 1.7 rockers 114 lobe sep

CamMotion quoted me this:

224/232 588/588 with 1.7 rockers 114 lobe sep

Now I know bigger isn't always better, so which one should I choose and what will the difference be

those are pretty big splits, the first one will probably have a little more peak power.
