can't decide between two cams. HELP!

I'm going to get one of these two. They are both Comp. Cams..........228/230 @.050 571/573 lift 112LSA PT# 54-428-11 or this one....224/228 @.050 534/537 lift 112LSA PT# 54-418-11.......... Will the smaller cam have the lope that we all like? I figured you guys have heard about all the cams out there so what do you think. I have an M6 so I don't have to worry about a stall.

Re: can't decide between two cams. HELP!

the smaller one should still lope pretty good, particularly with the 112 lobe.

but the lift is awefully small on that cam. i would definately go with the first cam of those two. take advantage of the fact that LS1s love to breath

er...wait...

name says "vette" and 97......i guess i'm assuming it's an LS1 vette

car type would help
