Just want to say thanks - for all the replies by the "regulars" in this section. I've been doing my
cam research and have learned a lot from this board. There is a
wealth of information that can be found here, other boards with cam
questions refer people here.
Thanks guys!

Yep - 224/228/114 on .0578 lift. New springs - crane doubles, retainers, timing chain.
Should be a nice street cam and very driveable. I really did use a lot of info that was in your signature as well as discussion here. The last cam I bought was in 1974 so it was nice to be educated into modern cam design.
Not sure yet about a pulley, don't know if the gain is worth the potential problems, and whether or not to look at the oil pump. I've heard of only one oil pump failure on a 98. Mine has only 13,000 miles on it, and it's working fine.
Thanks for all your help.
