What is the duration when using 1.6 RR's on the XE 224/230 and 230/236?

When running 1.5 rockers the 224/230 cam is .502/.510 on a 112 LSA and the 230/236 is a .510/.520 on a 112 LSA. What would it be when using 1.6 RR's.

Which cam will keep me from having to rev over 6000 RPM while making power?

~6000 rpm?

Go with the 224 or something even a tad milder like 218.

Of course you made no mention of the engine size?????

it has no effect on the total durraction, but does increase durration at .050 which is usually what you compare

Im sorry, what I meant was the lift.

.622/.624 lift on a 230/236 XE cam when using 1.6RR's

Need lift numbers when using 1.6RR's on the XE 224/230 and the 230/236 cams.

Pretty simple...divide advertised lift by 1.5, then multiply that by 1.6.

XE 224/230= .535/.544 with 1.6 rockers
XE 230/236= .544/.554 with 1.6 rockers

This is correct.

1.6 rockers affect lift not duration.
