Why did you go with the less duration big split cam instead of the 226, is it because youre running Shorties?Pat G spec'd me the same 226-226 .598-.598 on a 115 For my PRC 2.5's and LTs. I know Geoff is the same guy that designed the Thunder Racing 224 so he definitely knows his ****. I had that cam on a 114LS in my 99 H/C SS and it rocked, idled smooth passed smog but ****** ripped from way low rpms to redline and didn't quit. I'm interested to see what these new lobes are gonna run like.

When I bought my car it had a tr224 on a 114, cnc 853's from Diamond Racing (in place of the stock 241s), stock ls6 intake, cai, tb, pulley/ewp and 1-3/4" long-tubes w/ Random tech cats. It put down 410rwhp thru an M6/10 bolt with 3.42s. and passed the sniffer here in CA with the previous owner. Mind you the LT's probably wouldn't have passed the visual anywhere else though so not exactly a 100% "emissions setup".

You think about some Smog legal Shorties? I had em on my SS for the smog ref when I got popped for long tubes . They did make a difference and sounded better. Especially with the 2000+ cat location and SLP Y pipe and FM collector.

Glad you got the 243s and that cam seems perfect for what you're doin'
FYI the cam may take a tad longer than 3wks. depending on sup/demand.
I just got my lil sleeper cam and it was exactly 5 wks. I decided to stay with
my cleaned up manifolds this year and hoping to get my tune next month.
I'm eager to see how close to 400 you get !!!
