That cam will give some thump but not a lot. It will not net you a huge amout of power gain but it will get you some good power. 918's are a good choice for this cam.

that a tiny cam not much bigger than an ls6 cam... it should idle well with somewhat of a lope.

It will be a good street cam but a tr224 on a 114 would be my choice because it will give you much better gains and still be completely drivable. I don't think it would lope all that much either especially going through full exhaust.

I'd move up to a TR 220 on a 112.
