LS1 Cam LSA ??? which one?

what a good lobe seperation angle for a LS1 camshaft? the cam i'm getting is available from a LSA of 110-115. What should i select? personally i wouldnt mind a rough idle at all. if i dont get any responses, i'll probably go for 112.

346
M6
3:42, eventually 3.73
street/strip
NA

and you're gonna be the one who gets to tune it,

edit: after doing some reading, i think i'll go with 114, yes lower creates a little more power, but has less power off idle, and a noticeable drop off, "so they say"

I would say a 113-115 would be best especially when only having 3.42-3.73 gears...113 is the lowest I would go.

112 seems to be the norm.
