Cam question

Installing this cam in a stock LS1, 224/224 .581/.581 on a 112 LSA. Sould the LSA be higher for a very streetable cam?What's the minimum I have to do? Only looking for no more than 380RWHP Intake manifold I know

That shouldnt be too bad, I think you will be fine. I have a cam real close to that. Mine is 222/222 563/563 on a 114 LCA and I wish I went with a 112.

With the higher LSAs, you start to bleed off DCR, unless you advance to compensate. For your app, that cam should be good.
