Default think this is a good choice??

im looking at getting a cam in a about a month and i want something that isnt going to sound real loud... i dont mind if its noticable but i want to try and keep it as stock sounding as possible but be able to hit low 12's high 11's on motor. heres the cam TR 224/224 .561/.561 112 LSA w/ Comp 918 beehive springs, reuse the stock retainers and use 7.400" chrome moly pushrods.

think i should change anything or what?

That cam will be fairly loud and definitely be noticeable.

High 11's shouldn't be a problem with a good suspension setup.

Good luck.

Maybe if you bump the idle up it will sound stocker, but less than 1000rpms it will definately be noticeable lope. Great cam choice though, I went with the patriot camshaft.. .585/.585 226/226 @ .050 on a 112, pretty similar, just slightly more aggressive.
