you could just advance the cam when installing to lower the powerband.... the 233/239 power band actually peakes 300 rpm lower then the ms3. I think with the converter itll run awsome, A dyno queen cam is more like an MS4, whick if u look at the specs, is a big diff.

I have a tr224/112 cam and was recommended a 230/236 111lsa+2. What was the 230/236 like for you,as far as driveability,power range,and how much more rwhp did you gain over the 224. please pm me and let me know

as for the 233/239, ill have the dyno graphs soon enough, however i called TSP and talked to them and its not a dyno queen cam, it does infact preform, especially with a stall. If you want you can lower the band by advancing it, and when u do heads it will pick up even more h/p cuz the cam is letting it flow alot. as i said its not like an MS4 where the power really comes in at like 6500, it makes power much lower then that too

you can easly hit 400 with 224 just get a goot set of heads and thats it.you should look at heads like AFR 205-patriot stage 1 ls6-DART 205-levirnois-TSP.make a search man.(its all about how much you can afford)

My combo put down 403 RWHP at 6200 RPM this week on a Mustang dyno while being tuned. Mine is a 6 speed though. (See sig.).

robman- Did you decide on the cam yet?

I am sitting here doing the same thing..

I want either a heads/cam swap or just a cam.. I can't make up my mind.. I'd really like to hit 400+ so I'm pretty sure I'm going to go with a set of Patriot heads..
