224 sounds pretty mild to me Peter.

224/228 is a popular mild cam for the LS1.

I know it's an LS1 but the theory should be similar (an LS1 is 346 cubes). I decided to go for something with a bit more duration and lift. The cam going in mine measures 239/242, .649"/.609" on 111 degree lobe centers. I'm running 3.93 rear gears and the guys that supplied the cam think this combination should work well. It'll be a bit of an animal but should still be streetable.

Those 8TB manifolds really smooth out a big cam as you don't have the disruption caused by the other inlets.

Cheers
