Specs sound right to me. I'm going 114LSA.

Back in the day, I ran a 220/220 .530/.530 110LSA in a Small roller 302 Ford...it loped HARD.

That TR224 is going to hit HARD in a 4.8. You might be going too big, but I guess that there's only one way to find out.

Be sure to get a before/after dyno! And make sure that Allen can tune that huge cam for that "little motor."

I'm rooting for ya man!
