Has anyone ran a 224/228 on a L92?
I'm in the middle of swapping out my LS2 for a complete L92 in my 07 trailblazer SS. Has anyone ran the 224/228 581/588 114 on a 6.2 set up or 6.0 with L92/LS3 heads? I know it's not the "best" cam to go with, but I'm just looking for a good street manner cam. I figure this cam is mild enough that I can DD it. Also because I already own it lol. Should I go with double springs or will the PAC 1218s be enough? Other mods will be the typical bolt ons, UD, Kooks, CAI, and debating between 2800-3200 stall.
Should I mill the heads? I know compression is around 10.5:1 stock on the L92 vs my 11:1 on the LS2. Thanks.

I'm running an LS2 / LS3 heads, stock torque converter with the following cam:
EPS 222/226 597/605 115+3 LSA
The car idles 600 rpm and no break push at all.
A good tune and I think your fine with that cam.

I have the same goals for the engine as you and Pat G spec'd me that cam for my 383. Obviously our motors have some differences, I think it would be worth the $25 to Pat G in your case.

Or just call Comp!
No need to pay someone IMHO when the people designing the cams know what they are doing. Cut the middle man out and go straight to the source. You can easily get more hp and tq and still be driveable bud. Just give them a call and ask for Gabe Gray he took care of me last year trying to spec out a cam for my 416.

That's why I was asking if someone has run a similar combo and what the results were. I guess I might have to test it out and see the results. Speaking with comp(forgot who I spoke with) and also with Texas speed. They said that cam isn't "ideal" for that combo, but since I have it just stick it in there and run it. Their own words were "an ideal can for that combo and what you're looking for will maybe pick you up an additional 5-8rwhp".
Based on that statement part of me wants to do it. The other part of me is wondering will I regret it?

In thinking more like 222/228, 220/228 higher lift like in the .600 lift range and on a 115/116 LSA. I want a tame beast.

It's not the lift that you should be worried about as much as the LSA's lol it's a 118 so it will be smooth with no bucking and hardly a chop making it Tame, But it should still be a beast with the lift and making power. Just my .2 bud that's all we're just brain storming right? Lol
