224/230 or 236/242
224/230 or 236/242 im thinking of going with a custom grind cam over the 224/230 581/588 114. The custom grind will be 236/242 580/590 on a 112. The increase in duration will lower dcr but will be easier on springs as the ramp rate isnt as steep? Let me know all your input. Thanks in advance.

Cam You need a custom cam like a 227/230 LSK/XFI .640"/.605 111lsa +1. It would work great in a stk. head LS1. Just so happens I got a BRAND NEW one, wouldn't fit in my milled AFR headed combo. My heads were 60 cc's with a .038" mill and I only had .060" or so P to V with a .040" gasket and this cam. Really wanted to run it too
Great area under the curve. Peaks around 6400 RPM. Good cammy idle. Lots of torque. It would have a good dynamic compression ratio also.
It would be a good choice.
Make you a helluva deal.
PM me if interested.
