Default FS/FT Comp 212/218 high lift cam

I have a Comp 212/218 high lift that I got as a package deal with some TEA Stage 1.5 heads. I was going to put this cam in a LS1 that was going into my Suzuki Samurai. I really am interested in a 222/224 Comp or something similar. I will consider a lot of different cams. This is an awesome cam for a 5.3 but I think with the compression I will have and the extra cubes I will want something a little bigger. I would like to get $300 plus shipping for it or trade for something a little bigger.

Look on their website. The LSA I think is 116 and the even the high lift version should be fine with LS6 springs, I would post a link but I am surfing from my phone.

The valve events are entirely different than the other version, so the difference lies not only in the lift. I personally am a fan of the low-lift version as it appears to hold a better low-end than the high lift version. YMMV.
