i picked the Vengeance Racing VRX4 228/230 .588/.592 112 LSA
i am looking at this cam because it doesn't seem large by any means, but isn't tiny either..and its advertised as making power starting at 1900 rpm which means i can still cruise on the highway without any problems and can retain my 3.42 gears

car will see daily duty primarily with occasional visits to the strip to run 1/4 mile
what i have is a 98 formula stock cube 6sp with stock gear weighing in at approx 3400lbs with 3/4 tank, some **** in the back seat, and no driver

the rest of everything will consiste of kook's LT's, kook's ory, magnaflow catback, K&N fipk, 80mm bbk tb, ported weiand intake, and ported 806 heads

i'm not really looking for criticism on any other aspects/components of my car, just would like to know if i've picked a cam that will suit me well or not

alright bud if your seriously gunna drop some cash on a cam read up, look up how cams really work and what they do before you make a choice. If it was me I would go with somethin more lopey but thats me.

I running the same exact cam. So far Im really enjoying it. Pulls pretty good with the 3.50's in the 9", but swappin in the 4.11s this week. Should be alot more fun now

I'm not gonna repeat all of this, but look here for my latest update and you can view my fquick page for all of my mods https://ls1tech.com/forums/dyno-benc...-vrx4-cam.html

For a DD I would have went with 114LSA...but even beyond that how come the duration between int and exhaust is only 2 degrees? will that match the heads better?

Oh yeah, it does lope pretty good. Not like any of your mid 230 cams and up but enough that it gets peoples attention real quick.

I had awesome luck with my Texas speed ms3 cam 237 242 109 112 lobe. I have had guys around here have very good luck with the Thunder racing. Trex cam to.

neither of those cams would even remotely suit me in what i'm looking for with the car...

Nice. Make sure you get what you want, not what everyone else has or likes.

I personally would go a bit smaller but cams are so subjective. There is no "perfect" camshaft other than one that fits your personal expectations.

Your definatly in the ballpark, in my opinion.

The only thing I'd be concerned about is a little chug in 6th gear with those small gears

Pretty similar for my F-11 228/230 .576/.595 114lsa from Futral Motorsports. I have put mine on the highway a few times and get gas mileage and dd it.
