G5X3 112 will fit stock heads, but piston to valve clearance is slightly below safe street margins, but a few poeple run it this way.

also, to add to what Patrick G said, you will have a choppier idle with a lower LSA, and no that doesnt mean if you have a MS4 on a 112 and a TR230 on a 111 that the TR230 will chop more. its all about degrees overlap for how choppy your idle will be...which can be figured by:
take the average of your two durations
take double your LSA
and find the difference
ex: this cam, 236/239 .600/.611 111 LSA, has a 15.5* overlap
which is figured by 236+239=475/2= 237.5

are all these cams pretty similar that ive listed? would one be better for driving on the road and some track time more than the other 3? going to be run with 4.11 so i'll be in good shape there. times getting closer to start ordering i need to decide but is so hard cause i wanna do it right the first time. anyone got any ms4 videos or g5x4 vids anywhere online in an fbody i couldnt find anything.
