Default as cast 225's and 150 shot cam insight needed

Spoke with some really awesome folks at Texas Speed. Goal for a particular engine would be stock bottom end build. With the following...

Ported FAST 90/90
1 7/8 ARH
EWP
100-150 shot depending

This will be going into a weekend driven car, and some night use through the week. It has to remain a stock bottom end, and we would like to keep from fly cutting pistons TSP claims they can set us up with an MS3 and above heads, but I wanted to know from some others if they know of this set up and how it works. Or would the Torquer 2 on a 112 be a more suitable cam. Thanks

The MS3 cam is on the bigger side. While it will make good power up in the RPM band, your lower RPM power will suffer. I would look for something a bit smaller. Something in the ballpark of a 229/236 112 LSA.

I have had excellent luck with TEA TFS As Cast 220's and camshafts I've designed.

Very reasonably priced cylinder head, and when paired with a good cam and matching valve train components, the results are excellent for the dollar amount spent.

Is this a 6 speed or automatic? Rear gear ratio?
