Hmmm. In the idea of not flycutting for this car, keeping the IVC a little later, etc. How about an LSK 227°/227° 110° LSA +0°. That will give you this:
0.01 0.050 0.200
277 227 153 LSK
277 227 153 LSK
110 110 110
110 110 110
28.5 3.5 -33.5 BTDC (- indicates ATDC)
68.5 43.5 6.5 ABDC
68.5 43.5 6.5 BBDC
28.5 3.5 -33.5 ATDC (- indicates BTDC)
110 110 110
57 7 -67 degrees
Not much overlap, but that would idle easier
.
And the overlap is centered.

That would be like a TSP 228R on steroids

1- It needs to be adjustable
2- If a cam is left on a +0 advance, then you want as little slack as possible in the chain to keep those VEs, otherwise with slack you end up retarding.
Double roller fits those criterias.

I would keep it on a XE-R exhaust lobe, like this:
227/232, .639/.595 110+2 LSA

Should be here this week with a set of PRC 2.5 5.3's.

And that looks a lot like the cam sitting in my living room along with my 59cc PRC 5.3L heads... 227/235 .644/.650 110+2 ... but I bet you'll have yours installed before I do. I need to spend $1300 on the rear end and $1000 on race tires before mine is going anywhere.
