Hmmm, normally from what ive read, you dont want such a large split with an FI cam, cause it creates more overlap even with a higher lsa.

Maybe someone else could pitch in.

It also depends on the drivability that you want out of the car. The more radical the cam, the less dependable it will be.

Id prob say something like a 224/230 might be more suitable, make more power with less overlap. Im still learning a lot though with FI...
