Cam Choice
Considering a 228R from Texs Speed. Will be installing Kooks LT with X-pipe, LS6 intake and Halltech Venom-stock LS1 heads for now. Their cam kit is priced within my budget. Anyone have any eperience with this cam, or have any other receommendations? Car is a weekend driver, no track use or drags.

this cam is well liked on 'that other site'
hope you are running a 6 spd.
by cam kit I assume you will be changing springs/prods.
will this cam be on a 112cl?
should be a very nice weekend setup

Go bigger, for real. 232/236 ish would be the way I would have gone if I could do it again. BTW-I have a 224/228 114lsa now. It makes good power and is very streetable, but wish it was a bit bigger.
