This might help.

Looks like a 223/231 with a 116+4.

A friend of a friend bought a 6.0 with low oil pressure and mp112 for a decent price, this was the cam it had in it.

I asked if if he was going to still use it, at this time yes.

i thought it would be a nice outfit for that lq9 I have... I still have the specs you set me up with too and if and when I get around to having fun building stuff (whenever that is) I will do something

That cam would work well in an LQ9 with the 112 or 122 making about 10PSI. Its on the large side for a 5.3 and would become slightly doggy... Less than 10# it may feel lazy in the LQ9 too. Lazy is all relative of course...
