Are you spraying or F/I? That's a pretty wide split otherwise. The duration is a little smaller than you could use if you wanted bigger duration.

IMO needs more intake duration to make the best power. I'd ~ 220/220 to 224/224 over than cam with the same ramp rate or a little more aggressive ramp rate.

Was the cam actually ordered as a 113 LSA cam? Looks to me sort of like it was.
