Default Yet another cam thread. How about a 224/218 .534 .527 reverse split?

I'm planning to run a Comp 218/224 with JPR S1 heads. Same combo that got 99TransAmGirl 415 or so hp. These reverse split cams look like they're making good power. How about a reverse split on a lower lift cam for us that don't want to worry about breaking springs. Yall think it would gain any over the regular 218/224? How about on the bottle?

JS ran 11.45@117 with that combo, so its not bad.

And, since I'm talking about custom grinds, I wonder how much gain there would be if the duration was bumped up to 226/220? I'm still trying to decide on the MMS229 or a lower lift stick. In about 2 more weeks I guess I'll roll the dice and order whatever I happen to be leaning toward at that moment, cause I change my mind weekly <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
