Any thoughts Lunati 230/237 .544 .543? 114 LSA. I can get this cam new for dirt cheap. I think it would be good for spray. Never seen anyone running this. What kind of power should I expect? Would it run good in my A4 daily driver w/ tuning?

Re: Any thoughts Lunati 230/237 .544 .543? It would probably be decent for a stroker, but thats more than you're going to want on stock cubes.
A 230/237 on 114 is going to peak over 7000rpm.
The people that are running 230 cams (Raging Motorsports, Thunder Racing, MMS, etc) are running them on 110-111LS--112 at most.
You'll probably run into piston to valve clearance problems as well.

Re: Any thoughts Lunati 230/237 .544 .543? Not a great cam choice in my opinion. People don't understand that too much exhaust duration on an LS1 will actuall HURT performance. You'd go faster with a large reverse-split cam (like a 230/224 111LSA). There's probably a reason why the cam's for sale. As far as nitrous goes, unless you plan on spraying more than a 200 shot, get a cam for max n/a performance and spray on top of that. That's what I do.

Re: Any thoughts Lunati 230/237 .544 .543? A 230/237 114 in your daily driver? Yeah, i'm gonna have to say that thats not a good idea. That cam is going to be no fun around town. It won't even begin to breath until 4grand or more, not to mention you'll have to spin it to 7grand which is a bad idea on a stock short block.
