It all depends on the tune and what you consider streetable? The XE224/230 is a great cam and is less lumpy than the 306. But the 306 can be daily driven also. Only problems i had were a little cam surge between 2000-2500 rpm with the 306. FWIW

230/236 is very streetable in my opinion. Do have some car surge though, fixed it be raising idle a little.

you will not want the cc306 with 2.73 gears and no stall. i would at least recommend 3.73s and a 3000 stall. it would take you forever to get up to 5000rpms with that current setup. as a matter of fact, i would recommend the gears and convertor before you even consider a cam.

one more thing. i wouldn't completely rule out the cc305. i have the cc305 and very mild headwork. my car makes pretty decent power. if i had a good stall convertor, i think i'd be running low 12s.

yo mike, 3.42 gears and a 2800 stall are in the plans too. i was going to leave the car there for a week and have your bro do all the work at one time, im still trying to figure out all the parts i need though. when you take your car to the track let me know what numbers she runs!

Its all in the tune, thats why i love modern FI cars, with the right tune you can get away with so much.

dont rule out the 306 or the 230/236 but the 224/230 on a 110 would give you a littel more lope more the hp curve, and take away a little drivabilty but not enough to consider. i wouldnt think.

what kind of emissions do you guys have over there.
