time to bump it up. Funds have entered the bank account.

List of items I plan on ordering from texas-speed. add anything else I might need.

TSP camshaft, 918 springs, and pushrod package
camshaft bolt and package kit
Pacesetter LT headers and ORY pipe

on the cam I'm debating between the 224R and the 228R on a 112 LSA

I wouldnt go bigger than the 224R even with that cam you will need to spin the motor up past 6000 to make peak power. Ill see if i can find black gmc's dyno sheets, he has a similar cam

here is his dyno with a 222/224 .56X/.56X @ 112+2

so with his he sees peak power over 6000, which is fine if that is what your looking for

I'm not aiming for peak Hp or anything really. Just looking for a quick DD. Way down the line a 6.0 with alot of work will be going in if I keep the truck long enough.

Oh, and I'm hoping to actually make it to Wheatley's shop to get tuned, After all this is put in of course. Would I have a big problem driving there?

with a 224 or 228 you will have alot of fun trying to keep it running at a stop youll prolly end up killing it a few times so, try not to pull out in front of someone just in case it decides to stall out
