Default cam intake ceterline ?

ok i understand how the intake centerline of a cam can effect the peak power of a cam(meaning by advancing or retarding it). now my question is say if u have a 224 cam on a 113lsa and the intake centerline was 113 if u degree the cam when u install it at 109 degrees will that bring the ICL to 109? will it matter at all?
thanks

If the LSA and the intake centerline are the same as in your example, then it has 0 advance ground in. Advancing it 4*s will put the ICL on a 109, just as you said.

Will it make a difference? I think it would. Lots of opinions here about advance and what effect it has. Most people will have 4*s ground into that cam. It is my opinion that this cam will have a little higher peak than one with advance, but would give up some power down the rpm scale.
