You've got the Texas Speed 228R??? That's the cam I've got my eyes on. What LSA did you pick out? I was thinking about going with the 112.
Can you post up some video, or at least an audio clip, so I can hear how she sounds? I'm about a year away from finishing my project, I'd be interested in seeing what she'll sound like. :)
228r in a 5.3 huh?
did you decide on this after watching a donkey show? just sayin....
Yeah really....especially with a 112.
I'll be sure to post up track times when I get around to running it :thumb:Quote:

Full bolt ons, 4.11s w/ truetrac, Circle-d 9.5" 4000 stall, built trans.Quote:

your guna love that cam. i just swapped out my 226r (custom grind). wished i had the 228r after driving it on a 226
ran 12.49 before the ported heads. dont listen to these guys who are afraid of bigger cams. i was in the same boat as them until i actually stepped up to a bigger cam. just swapped my 226/226 .584/.584 112+4 for a 231/239 .617/.623 111+2 cam and picked up an additional 20 hp over my 226 cam. it idles the same and drives the same. 60' times are the same too. only ran 2/10 slower in +450 da when my PB was set in -1000ish DA. et wise the 226 cam showed to gain around 70hp with my setup
ap2002 has taken his stock lq4 to a 12.41 i think with the same cam i had. he stepped up to a larger cam and bumped the compression a hair and now he is running 12.3's.
I don't think you'll see anymore of Scott on this site, he had a "meltdown" to put it nicely. He said he would stick to PT.
i noticed that he wasnt on here anymore, guess u gotta watch what you say lol
