Should be an OK street cam...

The closest I have seen in a comp was 228/230 and .571/.573 112 LSA

It was from the Extreme RPM High lift line XR281HR

I just ordered a similar cam the tsp 228R 228/228 .588/.588 112 lsa. It seems to be a good cam. I wanted an agressive cam for the street that I did not have to rev to 7K. Power on the tsp peaks around 6500 and it has good manners on the street with a tune.

Chris, would you suggest a less aggressive lobe, less duration, or both?
