using Raging Motorsports 5.7 heads at 11:1 compression.
I used to have a 224/224 cam and picked up about 10rwhp/tq going to the 236/232. the 224 was a SLEEPER, it idled about stock and still made damn good power. great for a Daily Driver which was what I had at the time. the current 236/232 still works well for street driving though.
