i bought my camaro a while back and i got a 227/224 .569/.563 114 cam for it for free, i was gonna see if anyone else was running a cam like this and if they could tell me what kind of power gaines they were getting and if it was a good cam at all.

Its a great cam for stock LS1 heads (reverse split). Should make right at 400 rwhp with all of the supporting boltons.

sweet! what would be some of the supporting mods?
once again im still new to these things.

Supporting mods would be bolt ons, i.e. headers, exhaust, lid, etc.

I am running the Thunder Racing 230/224 111lsa cam and am very impressed with it.

Do you have an auto or 6 speed?

6speed, i got the cam for free. with the car, and its been sittin around so im finally decideing what to do, a buddy of mine said throw the cam away, because it wasnt an aggresive cam. but he tends to complain alot.

Thunder Racing Custom "Reverse Split" Camshaft - 227/224 .569/.563 114 LSA (This cam will check in the 226 range on the intake lobe.) 2200-6800 RPM Power Band. Excellent mid-range & high RPM power. Automatic cars require computer tuning and it is recommend for optimum results on manual transmission cars. Better piston/valve clearance than 230/224 cam for applications using heavily milled heads and/or larger than stock valves. Slightly smoother idle than 230/224 cam. Due to the fast ramp rate of this camshaft, the use of 1.8 rockers is not recommended.

the 114lsa will make it idle alot smoother than mine. It looks to be a decent cam. most people start out with the 224/224 cam and them upgrade from there.

so does anyone know of where i can find some sound clips for it? and do you think it would be a good base cam? for starting out?

I think it would. Plan on getting it tuned soon after that.

My TR230 has great drivability after the tune.

sounds good what all would i need to complete the cam install, ive installed cams before but ive always reused the stock rocker arms and pushrods... i was a 5.0 guy but i wanted power so i bought a SS!

Just make sure to install new valve springs and the other things typical for a cam install.

I have the 224/224, right now, it is decent your should offer a little more punch throw it in, easy install if you take your time, and if you want to go bigger then you already no how to install it, but it should be worth your time it is small, but still very good mod.
