I AGREE with this 1000%, call ALLAN FUTRAL he is a great guy and an LS1/6 Tuner and CAM GURU!! TELL him your goals, usage and objectives and he will set you up with the perect cam!!!! STICK with the advice of a cam PROFESSIONAL EXPERT and that would be ALLAN FUTURAL!!!

I'm having ECS install the F4 cam 226/226 at 114 lsa cam for the very same reason - pass emissions with the largest cam possible.
