Go dual valve springs and change them out every 20 K miles...
Don't go 23K miles....Don't go 24K miles....
Go 20K miles even with this mild cam.
Dual valve springs are an excellent choice with any aftermarket cam ...JMO esepcially in an everyday driver..
It'll save your @ss

I asked for something similar as far as a DD+Performance cam, that didn't I didn't want to
spin real high to make power.

He recommended the same for me, but with 1 degree of advance ground in......228/232 .588/.592 on a 110LSA +1

228/232 .588/.592 on a 110LSA +1. I have looked into this cam also. I have considered selling the TR224 to go with it. It seems to make good numbers. What stall was recomended with it? I have a Vig 32oo right now and will be running 3.90 gears.

Sounds like exactly what I want. I need somethign VERY tunable and drivable since my 1997 C5 is my daily driver for 40 mi a day (some in traffic). TR 224/224...anyone have results of that cam with some ported LS6 or CNC LS1 heads?
