it will work, but not the most optimized cam for your mods/goals IMO.

This is meant more as a cam to add a little power to a blown engine where the blower is making most of the power.. You generally wont find as big of a split on a non blower cam with similar duration and probably a lower LSA would be in order for something like that small.. Maybe a 224/228 similar lift on a 112, if youre looking for something that small. If you want a good daily driver (keeping in mind that a tune plays a big part) that also makes some power look for something in the low to mid 23X with a little more lift, around 600-610 on a 112.

The 114lsa will give you a great idle and make this very streetable and it will have a slightly higher rpm band with the 114 lsa vs a 112lsa. Also, the lift is more than adequate without being overly agressive and too tuff on your valvetrain. With today's standard of big stock cubed LS cams this certainly does not fall in that category and is more in the middle as far as overall size and agressiveness. Put a procharger on that baby and really enjoy it or stay N/A and it will work very well!

looks similar(exhaust lobe that is) to some of the futral grinds. I would suggest the f12 or f13.
