224 cam
Power estimate?
SLP lid, filter, and bellows
TSP LTs and true duals
243s and TSP cam
What are the differences between the 224xe and 224r. The R looks larger in lift identical duration but it has a lower powerband as listed by TSP.

Back in the day I dyno tested both camshafts next to each other. The 224R camshaft would without a doubt be my first pick between the two camshafts. You could also consider the 228R camshaft, it makes power very similar to the 224R camshaft, but makes about 5hp peak more. They both can be tuned very easily & can run a single spring if your looking to save $$$!
We can even put together a nice mail order tune for you so all you have to do is install & fire up!!

In a M6 car, 224 probably like 380's and probably 390's with the 228. Im not sure what all is involved with "stage 1" on those heads. With stock ls1 heads probably 370-375 with the 224 and 380-385 with the 228. Each car is different, hope this helps.

I'm going to head back to the dyno soon. I ported up a 78mm fast intake and now its an 85mm ported fast. I will also be installing an underdrive pulley, this build was far from something I just slapped together. I'm hoping for 430rwhp and 400 rwtq. Keep in mind the LS7 clutches are proven power robbers (5-10 rwhp). There was a lot of time and detail involved but I did it all on a cheap budget, I have over 20 hours into the valve job alone.

EDIT: What should I expect from hp-wise from Stage 1 LS6 and 228R combo with TSP headers/true duals? Injectors/clutch needed?
