Cam going in...
Well, got everything I need for the CAM to go in, so tomorrow I am going to install my 228/232 .588/.595 112+4 COMP CAM with my 42 lbs injectors.
I will post up pictures and possibly videos.
I have done this install a few times, so hopefully this one goes as smoothly as the first few have.

I like that cam a lot, had one very similar but was a custom grind on a 113+4
Had a subtle chop, and the advance really helped the midrange. Great street cam.

I was wanting a decent street CAM that will provide decent power throughout the power band and this one should do just that.

Good luck with the swap! Hope everything goes smooth for ya.
You'll be very happy with the power under the peak.
The power is there right from idle...no need to get the revs up to feel it. I've got the 228R which is pretty close to yours. I put down 417 with LTs, catless X, underdrive and ziptie. In my opinion its just the perfect street setup. Drives like stock but with lots more grunt when you stab it.
I honestly enjoy driving this car more than my 98 which I had built and procharged. With that car it would just roll out of the tires in the first 3 gears. With my Z06 its just enough power that you can get thrown back in your seat at will but easily keep it right on the edge of wheel spin.
