112 lsa I'm guessing +4 I need to call Geoff Monday and double check. How's your car sound on a 110? Probably sounds nasty

yeah I know pred, the calculator I have which shows IVC and .006 lift values...I used the ones from a x-er cam since it will most likely be the closest to eps lobes...it will definitely be pretty close

idle around 1050rpm ( a little high but I don't mind especially when my stereo is in with the 2 amps drawing)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cqZye...e_gdata_player

so assuming your .006 duration is 283 like a x-er lobe (you can call geoff so we can be exact) 112+4

dcr 8.79:1 with 60cc
dcr 8.91:1 with 59cc

a bigger intake duration cam will bleed off more compression...also a smaller advance will lower it too for the same lsa...

give geoff a call and we can know exactly if you want

I was going to do a stage 2 CNC on my 243's with the stock Z06 valves but changed my mind and will buy the 220s with hand finishing. I'm still undecided on my cam... I'm excited to see your results!
