You're doing alot of speculation here saying "I think my car will run xx.xx now". Practice is one of the most important aspects.

the nearest track to me is 2 hours away, so practice isn't something easily accessible... judging by over 2 dozen other cars with similar mods, 12.3-12.5 is a solid bet....

https://ls1tech.com/forums/12-second...-113-12-a.html just flipping through shyyt found this- basically same car exp his has ls6 and i have a lil more other places- n i have 12bolt 4.11 and I'm my predictions are based off a 1.6 60'- (1.9-1.6= .3) that's .6 less in the 1/4 aka 11.9- so theres nothing wrong saying 12.4ish

were you only going with the 224r because you want it to be streetable? In my opinion 228r cam is a great streetable cam. I dailydrove one with a 4l60 and it was fine. Since you have a m6 i wouldnt consider anything smaller. cam it and throw some et streets on and you should see a nice improvement
