    that sounds more reasonable......the intake lift may be an issue with degreeing the cam.......

    when you get an adjustable cam gear set to degree the cam it pays HUGE dividends with TQ......verify and REVERIFY the piston to valve clearance when degreed 4 degrees and drive on if it has no issues.......

    that duration is almost the exact numbers i had on a 6.0 LS2 in my H/C combo and it made beautiful power.....degreed 4 degrees you will make STUPID TQ with it....

    a 114 LSA degreed makes for a nice CHOPPY idle as well which is nice if you want people to hear it that is......

    another thing with the REVERSE split that cam will keep the cylinder pressures HIGH (DYNAMIC COMPRESSION) and that is what makes TQ, the go fast stuff.....not the exact cam i would spec but a GOOD choice nonetheless
