Default Cam question

Would you consider a Comp cam 218/222 duration 50, 562 intake/567 exhaust with a 113 lobe seperation a baby cam???

buying new heads from Patriot Performance. Just wondering what everyone thoughts were on this cam size with Patriots LS6 2013???

thanks

Compared to what most people run, thats definately small. It should make decent power with heads and not lope much (if at all).

Bringing this thread back to life because I would also like to know what a good cam choice would be for the Patriot Performance 2013 Heads. They are now using the 354 castings with a 227 + - intake runner. I was looking at getting the TR 224 112lsa cam, but don't know what cam selection would be best. I'm looking for a good autocrossing setup with the patriot 2013's. They should be here in a week, and I need to get a cam. Thanks guys in advance.

with the bigger intake runner of those heads (according to what you listed) you may sacrafice a little low end power, particularly with a smaller cam.

i'd look into something with a 205-215cc runner
