Do you guys think a 226/226 .609/.600 110lsa cam is too big for a Dd T/A??

Also, my car/motor has 63,300 miles on it....I personally don't think I need new lifters and lifter trays, what do you guys think?

Now we all know that you don't have to change out your lifters when you change your cam (roller lifters only). But if it were me, and going thru all of the trouble of changing my cam, timing chain, pushrods for a little bit more and peace of mind I would change the lifters since you said they have 63k on them.
Lifters should be looked at before any cam change. Here is a link to Crane cams site on cams and lifters: http://www.cranecams.com/?show=reasonsForFailure

My cam is a 226/232 .609/.604 113+2, its very streetable and made great power. The only thing I would worry about with that cam would be the 110lsa, that idle would pretty rough for a dd but that just depends on your preference.

And yes Iwould for sure change the lifters, LS7s will cost you just over $100, then buy some cometic head gaskets to lower your compression and make more power with that cam.
