Default 2 Cams which one?

I have two choices for my C5. 224/224 .581 lsa112
Or 222/228 .581/.587 lsa114. I want a good midrange pull 3-6K. I am leaning towards the split duration though. I am running CNC 11:1 heads, TPIS headers, LS6 intake etc... Also whack the cats or not? Thanks!

Go with the split but reverse it 228/222 and most definately ditch the cats.

Good to see you over here Brick!

Alot of the members here seem to be really interested in the reverse split.

I also said the same thing. Seems like people are having alot of good luck with them, but seeing as you already have the cams.....I would go with the split duration.

Lots of people have the 224, maybe with less lift, but it would be cool to see what your other grind would make.

Between those two I'd use the single pattern for NA or the split for running N2O. No need for that extra exhaust duration NA.

Keep the cats if you want it quieter with no chance for drone or ditch the cats for a few extra ponies (don't expect much.)
