Default found a cam- opinions?

hey guys, i found a used cam for my truck just wanting to know if its a decent nitrous cam, its close in specs to one a guy recomended from thunder racing


gt-11 specs are 215/231 @ .050 with .631/.644 on a 118 centerline

its going in a 2004 tahoe with a 4.8

also am i going to need a stall convertor for this?

looks like an interesting one with such a wide split and big separation angle it should be a great cam for boosted applications too. Huge lift, wow!

no you will need a 3500 stall to make it work right, dual valve springs, and yes it will work with NOS.

Knowing if it will work well with nitrous is more of a question of valve events rather than .050 duration numbers, but yes I'm sure it will work fine with with nitrous, longer exhaust durations and little overlap work good with n20.
