Leftcoast Joe told me 115 LSA is most optimal for a blower setup. Not sure how the cam you are looking at will work.

My cam isnt optimal for my setup but it still works great and makes 520+ to the wheels.

Take a look at this, or the other Maggie cam these guys have. You probably want to stay in the 115-116, or slightly higher LSA range.

Do you want more power down low, or way up high in the rpm? Grunt/torque cam specs will be way different than max hp/racing cam. What are you trying to get out of it(goals)?

Bigger than I'd want to fool with. Probably won't give you any more power vs a smaller cam with wider LSA. Just move the power band around a bit. I'm pretty happy with my 215/227 .603/.613 116LSA. It's on a forged 6.0L with ported LS2 heads. Near perfect manners and pulls hard to 6000rpm (shift point).
