Yea dyno numbers may look prettier with a bigger cam but it's where it makes the power at what maters. I say 228r and mil stock heads or get 243 or aftermarket heads.. Better drivability, it will pull harder down low, you will still make good numbers cam only and 228 chops like a ****

I know what cam sizes do to the power/torque curves throughout the rpm's, if you would have kept going/reading you would have seen my reply to Dave, I was just messing with his brain.
