I going with 228/236 .574/.571 112 LSA cam. Was gonna go on a 110lsa but its alittle to choppy. I like a nice lope over chop. What do you guys think? I was looking at the 224/230 .560/.544 110 LSA but on a 112lsa. Ill give up some torque and a few upper ponies for a better idle. I must say LE is loads of help

I honestly wish i got this cam cut on a 112 lsa, the idle is just sooo choppy sounds awesome and with good tuning now it drives very well but every once in a while the car will die when it drops the idle, mostly in reverse

Its set at 1000 but my tuner said that my car can only take in a certain amount of air at idle thats why sometimes it will drop and cutoff

To do the front end swap i just needed front fenders, front bumper, traded my lt1 ss hood for a 02 ss hood and the bumper support and lights. Make sure a body shop does the aligning though it can really look like poop if you dont know what youre doing

HMM nubucks, do you have a larger TB? Thanks for info on the 110lsa being a little to chopy, that furtures my decision on going 112lsa. Now Im just stuck between the 228/236 .574/.571 112 LSA cam and the 224/230 .560/.544 112 LSA. Id be running 1.6 rr with these. Idk what do you guys think of these two cams. Car is more a toy then driver, but Im not looking for anything radical. just something above the Hot Cam. I could save alot and go the Hot Cam way, as I already have everything from the hot cam kit installed minus the cam

I think you will be very happy with the 224-230 it has a good power band with very nice street manners. I drive the car maybe twice a month but when i do its a treat to do with the gear, stall, and cam its fun to just get on the gas and let her rip
