Its very small and I am not sure about duration or lift but make sure to get whatever cam you get on a 116 lsa as it will hold more boost in the cylinders longer.Oh and get a reverse split with more exhaust than intake duration.

A good cam would be in the 220 range, your 221 on a 114 is fine too, don't worry too much about the intake flow values, just make sure the flow is there at your cam lift. Most importantly would be a very efficient exhaust flow.
Good Luck! sounds good.

230/236 on 114LSA and an aggressive lobe like the XE-R. Will make great power and be pretty tame with the extra cubes.
Peak power will likely be in the 6500rpm range depending on exhaust configuration. I would also consider full length 1 3/4 headers and a 3 inch Ypipe with dual cutouts and 3 inch int pipe.
Cheers,
Chris

I think your combo is perfect for the 6400 rpm limit imposed by the S/C. Besides, if you get something else, I'll have to help you work on that **** <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="gr_tounge.gif" />
