What ya think about this cam with stock heads. 224/224 on xe-r: I know everyone has one, damn 3.42s
On a 110lsa: Thumpity Thumpity
565/565: Don't trust the springs enough to push it
4 Degrees advance: Everyone is doing it
918s with Titanium Retainers: Might as well
7.4" pushrods: Stock and all
What do ya think? I chose the 110 because I like a good thumb and also like the fact that it brings peak power and torque down and creates more peak power and torque. 565 lift because I don't trust the 918s past that and don't think there is power to be gained beyond that on stock heads (my opinion ofcourse). 224/224 because of those damn 3.42s and the desire to not spin my motor past 6600. Titanium retainers for piece of mind(less weight on springs means less stress on springs). Pushrods, you know the drill. I have ls1 edit so there will no tuning problems. Might need to drill the tb some. Only time will tell.
P.S. Will be ginin' ya a holler in a couple weeks there Stu.

Re: What ya think about this cam with stock heads. Im no expert but that cam should make pretty good power.With the 110lsa it should be pretty choppy at idle.Id be curious as to actual power output. Good luck. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />
