the difference between them would be so minimal that if you had one it wouldnt be worth the swap to another. out of the 3 though i'd go with the 228R, but i'd look into the 231. great n/a and nitrous cam.

Predator Z just go with the TSP 231/237 cam it loves the juice plus it will net you better times than those three cams. Those three cams might just have a little better power under the curve than the 231/237 but on the top the 231/237 will pull like a mo fo raped ape! Yet still have plenty of power under the curve for the street. I'd e mail Jason at texas speed and get his opinion thats what I did and he recommended me the 231/237. He has the best customer service I have ever experienced.

I have a generic 228R 112 and it runs good. Very few driveability issues. Didnt I read somewhere a few weeks back that you were going no bigger than a 224 I thought there was money involved? I definitely wouldn't go reverse split for a 150 shot though.

Brad, Thank you for reminding me on the 224 , that was going to be with a forged 347 and 200>250 N20. As fate would have it (more like money fate), I can't do the forged motor this Summer.
So I guess I have to settle for the most out of my gold pot. Still will be smaller than a T-Rex though
