anyone running a 238/244 cam only?
Just broke the 10 bolt, and am putting a Moser 9" w/ 410 gears (actually says 411 on TSP's website). Thought i would throw a cam in there since the car will be down for a few weeks. Am going w/ 238/244, but am not sure whether to go with 112 lsa or 114. Is a DD, but i go to college in small town and see essentially no traffic. Anyone running this cam? How streetable is it? Is the 114 pretty lopey, or should i go with the 112?
PS: This is not a "pick my cam for me" thread, but I would like to get an idea of what to expect (aside from more rwhp and less mpg).

We usually run cams close to that duration on a 112lsa. Streetability is going to depend more on the tune than the cam. With a good tune you should be ok with it as a dailey driver. I drove my G5x3 cam year round for about a year.

We ran a cam in a customers build that was 238/244. Streetability is fine, like the above posted with our tune it ran fine, its more the tune than the cam itself. Car made respectable #'s and is the kids daily driver that includes highway and in town driving.
