224/224 too small

With a 224/224 581, 114, mild ported stock head, I made 380 rwhp, 374 tq, through stock ypipe with cats. Great everyday cam that pulls nicely through the rpm range. I'm installing headers this summer and expect an honest 20 extra hp.
I'm looking at a 224/224 112 myself....I really like everything that I see and hear about em.

I was running a TR220. 220-220/551-551 on 114. Great all around cam, especially for a daily driver and someone who wants stock driveability in any situation. I personally felt it was very, very tame. I made 353 with stock 98 heads and intake thru a 3600 'verter. Bigger isn't always better. Its all about the combo.
This is mustang dyno right thats what I pushed out too on a mustang dyno it could be 10 to 15 % higher and a auto never dynos good any way so in theroy you could say that you had a 5 to 10 % power loss thier, to engine.
350 = 15 % 402.5 hp + 10 more % +442.75 thats In theory is what it would be around at the engine not bad if you ask me thats almost a 130 hp gain with a simple heads and cam swap.
Just bran storming Hp dosent mean poop to me track time are what count in my book low 12's cam only and mid 11's H/C thats the average from what I have seen.

Think about how much power my car woulda made if I had longtubes, UD pulley, no cats, true duals, and a better intake manifold. Small cams are where its at in my opinion... well for a good, strong, daily driver...

I just put my 224 581. on a 112 lsa in a week ago
I love it, sounds amazing, pulls amazing as well.
Make sure u put a ls6 intake or better on that car or you will be choking the cam totally.
