236/236 .651/.651 110+4 Is my cam. Video is in my sig. Its only revving to about 4000 rpmin the video but should pull to about 7,000. Sounds pretty nice IMO if you are wanting sound. With that 114lsa its not going to be as choppy of an idle.

read the stickys, any cam with a low lsa will give you a lopie sound, hell lower the idle on a stock cam and it will sound lopie

that cam only has 5 degrees of overlap. Get it cut on a 112 and itll have 9 degrees of overlap. Should sounds like my old car with a 228/232 on a 110 with 10* overlap...

and thats through cats and cutout! sounded nice enough for me

My TR230 has 5 degrees of overlap and it sounds downright nasty. No way in hell you're going to convince someone it's stock, even with the SLP Dual/Dual!

It'll sound nastier, make power sooner and you won't have to spin as high

Just a little bitchier to tune. It's pretty close to my cam but I'm on XFI/XE-R lobes with 2* advance.
