240/248@50 on a 108LSA+4 .600 lift.Gonna take a converter with that.(3000)IF ya got the compression? 58MM TB.
Same cam on a 112+4 if ya want to ***** around and don't have the compression.
Shorten it up if ya want but your 227 cam is a bit small to make any serious HP IMO.

I run the numbers in my sig with a GTP-6 cam .568i .592e 235 242 112lsa. Very streetable cam. Sounds good and idles smooth at 1000rpms.

Re: cam ideas for 355/a3

With almost the same setup and a CC306 in my car it ran 11.20@120mph N/A. It cruises very nicely and it is really runs with some spray. That was with the 3.42's and the stock 10bolt. Times in sig. It is a great all around cam. Goodluck.
