Default XR275hr or TSP224r????

I"m looking into getting another cam in a few weeks......... My plans flans for the truck within the next year are TBSS intake swap, 243 heads P&P/milled, and maybe a 100-150 shot.

what are yalls opinions on these cam? what would be a better choice for me with what i already have(bottom sig) some of future mods. i want either a 112 or 114 lsa. Or should i get tsp to build me a custom grind cam?

thanks,
dennis

Try posting the cam specs instead of just part numbers so that guys don't have to go searching to find out what cams you're talking about...not everybody memorizes every cam part number...I don't even look twice when guys don't post specs myself...

BS to the bigger the better, especially if it's your DD. 224/230 is pretty big for a 5.3l... What is the lift? Your gonna need a stall with either of those cams. You should list your goals for the truck and how you use it so people have a little more info on what your wanting. If I were you I would start searching threads and reading; there is a new "which cam for me" thread that pops up about every day.
