416 CI (~12:1 compression)
L92 heads (unported, milled 0.030, Comp 921 springs)
Ported intake
full exhaust
94 octane

Present cam:
230 XFI / 242 XER, 114 LSA

- The setup above suffers from intake reversion.
- Low end feels clumsy.
- Not sure if it is the cams fault, but the exhaust reeks?

Would switching to a smaller cam be the way to go? I was heavily leaning towards a 228/232 114 LSA, until I came across a thread (on this forum) about a guy who had that exact cam (for his L92 setup) and how he duked it out forever with intake reversion, and that the cure was swapping to a smaller cam.

I would like to get rid of the intake reversion, improve low-speed city driving, and if possible, improve torque (peak HP not a concern for me).

Would something like 224 XFI / 230 XFI 114 LSA would be the way to go?

Any particular vendor(s) I could be calling to get this sorted out?

I run a 230/240 in my L92 headed 408 iron block with no driving issues or reversion issues. Switching to a smaller cam will help to get rid of the problem, but I would think tuning it would be a better way to go about it. I tune my own stuff and there are several things you can do to tame the cam down. In reality that cam is more of a mild cam. Do you have any good tuners near you?

228/230 on a 112, no issues here at all

It seems with the l92's the wider split is the way to go as in your 230/242. I have ran bigger cams in my l92,402ci,old cam was a 248/254 and ran great even down low. I now run a 236/244 and I did gain a little over the bigger cam. I am switching again to like a 238/250 114. I think if your exhaust reeks,I say it's in the tune. I do not think its your cam at all and a swap may gain some lowend but not a real big difference that would make it worth it. Check the tune.

I 2nd check your tune. Exhuast reeking is a dead give a way.

Your current cam is properly sized for an L92 416. If the performance is not up to your standards, you should seek out a more capable tuner. That is a baby cam you have.
