Hi,
I have a 3.830 bore x3.625 stroke stage 2 i am finishing up on.it has 6.5 " rods.I am running a 224/224 solid roller with a 110 centerline.I was thinking of advancing the cam 4 degrees.i would like to get some opinions on this.

Thanks,Nick

I would not advance the cam unless you are soft on the bottom end and need to increase the low end torque do to other issues. When you advance the cam it closes the intake valve earlier, I would leave it straight up to take advantage of the high rod ratio created by the long rods in the engine.
