There isn't a noticeable difference between the 112/114 TR220, just maybe a powerband pushed slightly higher into the RPM range. The TSP220 has a little higher lift but is pretty much the same as the TR220 as they both use XER lobes IIRC. The LSA with the cams in question should be chosen depending on what kind of idle you want really. A 114LSA still will lope just a little but it won't be anything like the choppy idle of a 112. A rule of thumb is the higher the LSA the more your powerband is pushed to the right. It may not be a lot, but there are dyno graphs on here that will show you the difference in powerband between a 112vs.114

If I had the dough, I'd get a TR220 to slap in my 5.3 to hold me over until I can work up the scratch to build my LQ9

im liking this cam a lot, even with my limited knowledge of them. i think this cam would hold me over until i get s/c down the road. i dont think id have the change to drop a 6.2/6l80e/radix into this and put in a 14bolt rear. that would be killer though.
but this is the cam i will probably get, just gotta make sure about the springs/rods/lifters for the DOD delete kit.

The TR224 will work in a 5.3, but the TR220 seems to really shine and is easier to tune, as well as drive on the street. The TR224 has been proven to work well in 6.0's though
