Default question about MS3 cam 112 or 113 LS1?

i was wanting to get this cam but with 112 LSA. but since it come already with 113 LSA. i was wondering if it would work better with 112 or just the 113 LSA. i was told that with 112 i would get better low end power but not sure. can you guys help? .

i think that you may get alittle more low end torque, but i think that you'd have problems with piston to valve clearence (PTV). even with the cam on a 113 you'll have plenty of low end power.

From what I understand with the 113LSA you will get more down low, and with 112LSA more up top and its more of a nitrous lover than the 113

on a 112 LSA you'll have more valve overlap, which will give you more torque (low end power) and with a 113 LSA you'd have less valve overlap and more high end hp.

i think for nitrous you want a 114 LSA. with more valve over lap (ie. 112 LSA) you'd lose more nitrous out of your tail pipes

I agree
yeah there' some wrong info here.

113 for juice, 112 if you want for maybe a little better n/a.

TSP reccomends the 113 for both applications.
