isnt 114 better than 112 for N20 use?

I went with the Comp 224/224 .563 114 cam. Idle was a pain, but with EDIT you can make anything work.

Im a little scary of that .581 lift. Mainly cause i broke a 918 with only .563 lift <img border="0" title="" alt="[Sad]" src="gr_sad.gif" />

but you're gonna need pushrods, valve springs, timing chain, and oil pump <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Yes a 114 cam is better for spray but if it is 100 shot a 112 is ok.

Unless you start spraying over a 200 shot then dont even worry about it.
