Default Which cam...

My current cam, Comp Cam (224/228 .563/.563 112 LSA) and heads GTP Stage 2 (http://www.thunderracing.com/catalog...vid=3&pcid=114) just doesnt give me the power that i "need".

I am wanting to do an all motor setup so a reverse split is prolly the way i want to go but the problem that ive encountered is the piston to valve clearance in that its not that much.

any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

Are you planning going big on this?

FWIW: I have my 244/248 .600/.600 115 on my .030 milled 241 heads. You should always check PTV just to be sure for the record. Don't ever take advice on here from someone without doing it yourself when it comes to "What fits my setup clearance wise".
