i was thinking this cam.................Texas Speed 224R 224/224 .581"/.581" Camshaft

would i have to get new pushrods or springs?
or stock rods and springs work?

Yeah, you'll need better valve springs and pushrods.
Futral F4 (226/226)would be a good option.

Both rods and springs. I want to go with the same 224 cam it's still mild but good enough power. I live in Cali and 224/224 with 114lsa will pass smog, anything higher will not pass.

also got my heads resurfaced today and now i need to figure out what size pushrods i need?

so what springs u guys recomend on the 224 cam?
not to expensive

if you want a TSP cam get the cam pkg,cam,springs,push rods.tell them how much the heads are milled and the will send the correct length push rods.thunder racing has good prices on cam pkgs also.another good cam for 243 heads is a EPS cam,or have Pat-G spec you a custom cam to meet you needs.

drewfever1020

how do i find out how much was resurfaced?

drewfever1020

anyone?

garygnu

ask the shop that resurfaced your heads ,how much they did remove.

I'm getting ready to fire up a 236/245 installed on 110icl with my 243's. Not small but it should make power

Good choice if you don't want to go with a custom cam.

I personally like to see a split with a longer exhaust duration, but that's just my opinion...maybe something like a 224/230 .595/.595 112lsa.

I'd love to hear that 236/245 fire up . I had a 238/242 in my original ls1
