Default The TR224 is in!

Well this past sunday i drove to my buddies house and we installed the TR224/112 cam. All i gotta say is WOW. I am a big fan of this cam. The idle sounds really badass and even with my restrictive LS1 intake on I can feel a big diffrence. The springs took forever to do but after that the cam, timing chain, and new oil pump went in like a breeze. Also I used the double roller rollmaster chain from SDPC and it fits fine with my ASP pulley for anyone who was wondering. Now I just gotta save for the LS6 intake and some gears to get the beast rollin'

Just curious did you have to disconnect any of the A/C lines?
What other mods do you have? How is the idle?
I'm going with the same cam here real soon.

Darkhalf,
No i didn't have to disconnect any of the a/c lines just adjust them out of the way to pull the radiator a bit. I have full bolt ons besides the LS6 intake. The idle is awesome. A nice choppey/lopey sound like the old muscle cars. I have the complete hooker system for my car and it sounds really deep and ready to rip someones head off. You'll definetly love this cam. It seems very streetable and the daily driving to work and back feels the same as stock. It just doesn't sound stock!!!
