Thats like which is more expensive.
Market price Lobster or market price Steak.
I would take the 224/228 ANYDAY myself.
That is a very well proven very strong running cam. I would perfer it on a 112 or maybe a 112+2 or maybe even a 110 depending on your other mods but IMO the 224/228 cam is a better cam the the Patroit 226 cam. HOWEVER both can work Very Well in the right setup.
I just perfer a 2 or 4 degree intake to exhaust split.
If your tight on money the 226 will work fine and save you a few bucks.

Assuming both are on the same lobe style, the 226 cam is bigger, but I'd rather have the 224/228 any day.
