    I still think you would be better off with a tr220 or custom grind. I also wouldn't go to a cam that large without porting the heads and raising compression. but I am no expert and I wish you the best. and I have to give you props for the high stall to match the large cam.

    I actually got the cam to match the high stall. It ran good with the smaller cam too. Ran an 8.3 with a conservative tune with the 216/220.

    I do plan on getting the heads milled and having them ported/valve job. Would like 10 or 10.5:1 cr, but that will be later this year.

    This cam isn't that big..

    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.
