need some ideas
need some ideas i have been looking into cams recently and i decided i wanted something that was a stealth cam, but i wanted to make good power.
as i was looking at stealth cams i saw the old man cam, cheatr, and the mti ones and i like how quiet the cheatr cam is.
i was looking at the specs and the exhaust lobe was 230 and i know that is because this cam is designed for cars that have to run in emission contolled states.
my qustion is: is it possible to have a bigger intake lobe and a smaller exhaust lobe like a 220/224 at a high lsa like 116 or something similar to that? could i expect more power through that cam than the cheatr?
i would like to have enough power to hit an 11.9x on some BFG DRs

I just did a Comp Cams 222/224 on a 112 LSA and its perfect so far and got awesome power from it with the other upgrades. Also the driveablity is good and the gas mileage is good. With a quiet exhaust, it might be hard to tell you have a cam in there but with my LTs, ORY and Borla catback, the tri-state area knows when I crank it up. This cam fulfilled all of my expectations to the fullest and I couldnt imagine a better choice. Also dont be afraid of the GM Hotcams from the dealer. There are some nice mild cams there also that make nice power.
I had a split duration cam a few cams ago. 222/226 on a 114 and it was semi-sleepy. I liked it, but decided that I liked the lopier high rpm'd cams better and took the big plunge.
is it possible to hit 11.9x with a 222/226 on some bfg drs? What times did you hit? i want it on a wider lsa so it will be sleepy, is that possible?
nice numbers.... 428 rwhp with a small cam like that!
