224 or 228 for a daily driver. Very reliable & not hard on the valvetrain.

Thats like asking what color should I paint my house. Its way too subjective. What might work for one wont be good for someone else. Find some local cammed guys and check out their cars and see how mild or wile you want to go. Itll at least get you in the ballpark. But the basic rule of thumb is the bigger you go, the higher you have to spin, the more low end you lose, and the harder it is to drive, however it will make more power up top.

Why did you go with the flowmaster exhaust? They are the more restrictive of all the muffler choices.
