A number of guys in cam only LT1s trap 110-115, but magically a cammed LS1 only traps 110...
For your reference, the fastest cam only LS1 traps 128 mph and there are a bunch of cam only LS1s in the 120+ range.
110 is the low side of what I'd expect out of that cam. Guys generally trap 113-116 with that cam on a moderate setup.

If I seen a cammed LS1 trap 110 Id cry!
