What happens if I am running a 350ci motor and I am using eibach springs for valve springs, and my total lift at the valve is 7.01 inches?


Moving on, I like stuff with fast ramps (XE/XFI), and lots of lift for your goals. I dont have lobes off hand, but something like a 230/240 on a 114 with lift pushing upper .500s.

I ran the hotcam for many years....

Now I have the 224/236 CC @ 114 lsa (blower version of the 224/230)

I like the 224/236 a lot better than the hotcam. It sounds meaner, has more lope, but has a smoother idle believe it or not! And it revs till no tomorrow. It is a great camshaft IMO.
