OoO thank you for clearing that up i just got confused when he said somthing about the 210/224 ok ok things are cleared up now......so basically 846 and 224/230 are very similar ??? thats what im guessin... 846 being billet ? whats that mean?

 

224/230 and 846 may seem similar on paper but the lobe designs are different. May folks dont like the XE lobes. Billet is the material the cam is made of, Billet is better than cast, why I am not sure, someone else will have to chime in.

wha nvm i just saw that the 224/230 is .502 / .510 112 LSA ...thats waayyy lower lift than the 846 (222/230, 543, 563 on 112) what does the lift affect again? i know duration has to do with where the powerband is and stuff but whats lift do?

 

XE224/236 is a pretty damn good NA cam when you get it on a 112 lsa. Mine made 352 rwhp and 364 tq with this cam, shorty headers, full catback, stock water pump, and a good dyno tune. Drives really well too, my tuner was able to get virtually all the surge out of it at low revs. No need to spin the motor any more than 6300ish either. However, with some of the stuff we had to do on the dyno to get this thing to drive right and get the most out of it, I would not reccommend running this cam with a mail order tune.

 

ewwww no mail order huh? how mych is a dyno tune ? like 400?

 

^yeppers, $400ish is the going rate these days. Tuning actually is a mod IMO, you would spend extra to get a better set of heads or machine work right? Works the same way.

 

very true ...but im on a 1000 limit here (1200 pushin it) so i cant really...well not yet at least
