I'd talk to Mikey at Rapid Motorsports. He has a 230 cam on a 112 that put's up nice numbers...and he's not too far from Happy Valley!

I had MTI's X1 Cam 230/227 .571/.591 114

But I to wanted a bigger cam so my car currently is getting the G5X2 Cam installed 232/240 .608/.608 112

The X1 Cam you have the 114/112 option but you should get the 112 lobe seperation. I had the 114 and it sounded real nice by the way and made decent power.
