I truthfully don't think you can make a "wrong" decision .. seen 5.3's for example with anywhere from 212 cams all the way to 220's.. and they all make similar power and run similar times.. even stock48 will tell you that his famous triple 12 cam will only be within a few hp from other cams... keep the cam in the 112 or higher lsa and descent lift and you won't go wrong. All do respect to stock48 and Isky cams... but guys you "can" still go fast with other cams... lol.

IMO, your not trying to get the max out of your turbo setup, so no real need to have a great turbo cam. ANY cam will "work" it a turbo. Just put the cam in it that will give you that sound you want and then set the boost for the power you want and have the best of both worlds for YOU!
That's a quote from Kyle at KBracing in an older thread.


I know my 110lsa isn't a good choice and I don't mind changing the cam. I was just curious as to why you use the cams you use.

I will NEVER pay for a cam recommendation. I've seen too many people get spec'd the same cam for completely different setups. Plus with as much research and knowledge that the guys on this forum have there is never any reason for me to throw $25 dollars away for a cam spec. Just my $.02
