230/224 TR reverse split cam who on here has ever used or has this cam in their car....does it work well...any feedback is welcome...i just bought the cam and am wanting to know how its gonna feel and respond....im gonna install it with stock exhaust for about a month and then slap in the lt's and x pipe with duals 
I have this cam in right now but I'm going bigger now also.
I loved this cam. Great sound at idle. Pulls very well. It is great for a DD or mild street car.
Look at my sig. You will be very pleased with it!!

a buddy of mine (FstBlkz28) has that cam in his 2001 Z28 and made 395hp through headers and true duals! From riding with him i can tell you that it pulls real hard throughout the RPM range! Nice cam and best with free flowing exhaust!

I just checked, the one in the clip has an MTI X1 cam. About the same numbers.

Actually I was serious. Cam manners are all in the eye of the beholder/tuner/driver. My .595/ .595 242/244 110lsa in my 353cid LT4 I thought was a "medium size", fine for daily driving....to me. I don't consider it a BIG cam unless it's .625+ 245+ duration, mainly solid roller territory. IMO.
I've got a TR230. It idles at 850, pulls hard, sounds mean. I run duals that dump under the car through 24" long 2 1/2" magnaflows. I cant hit it hard in 2nd without loosing traction above 3500 rpm. 3rd finally grips ok, I think.
I used to run the TR230 cam before the Trex. The TR230 was/is one of my favorite cams to date, perfect for mild street/strip car and can be easily a DD. worked very well with my setup, I highly recomend it to anyone as a great street/strip cam.
