Default Tell me bout this cam

Might be interested in this cam from a buddy:

Comp Cams 97-up Roller
Intake: 226 Exhaust: 234
Lobe Separation: 114
Valve Lift: Intake-.569 Exhaust-.576

This will be going in a 2001 LS1 T/A with bolt ons and 3600 stall. What kind of power will it make? Does it have a good power band and good driveability for a daily driven ride?

pretty old lobe design going by the relatively low lift.

should make good power across the board, but nothing stagering.

a good tune and it should drive fine.

Is there an off the shelf cam that I could compare this to? What kind of power can I expect in a bolton auto car?

Well, got the cam installed and tuned. Seems to pull pretty good. I'm wondering how this cam would compare to the 224's and 228's variety's that Texas Speed offer?
