Default how about this cam for the lq4?

236 244@50 581 581 @112

or keep my 220 224 534 536 @112

I have a 3000 stall 3.73 gears, bunch of bolt ons, injectors, and blah blah blah. I am will most likely be going FI after tax time comes around. I also pull a boat and a racecar with this truck. Should I stay with my smaller cam? Thanks in advance.

I would look for something with a lil less duration with that converter IMO..

Yeah I was scared that might be a bit much. I would love to wait but I HAVE to have this truck back up and running soon.

If you're going FI in the future, I'd go with a completely different cam all together, with less overlap and a wider LSA. If no FI, the first cam will want way more torque converter while the second one should be well matched.
