Custom turbo cam specs...how's this look? Ok I finally decided to just order a cutom cam. This is going in a 346ci LS1 with a T76 turbo, custom front mount using truck manifolds.
Specs: 228/224 .588/.581 on a 114LSA
From what I've read, I think the reverse split will work out well with the manifold design. Any comments?

That is about what i would get if I had to pick a turbo cam. I am very curious to see how yours does, as I plan to get a truck manifold kit next spring.

If I ever get this project completed I'll post up my dyno results.

Plan now though is to stay turbo.
Back on topic, please do post up some dyno results. You have a forged 346? What compression and heads are you going with?

I'll be sure to post up some numbers once I'm done. I'm hoping that the ported 317's and custom cam will make some decent power at low boost. We shall see...

JPH: I haven't thought about that yet...I suppose straight up would work fine. Maybe +2?
PSJ: Yeah I haven't really seen any concrete proof with the reverse split vs. single pattern, but from what I've read it makes enough sense to try out. I was originally gunna go with a 224/224 .581/588 114 but after I pulled it out of the used shortblock I found out it was trashed. I'm located on the south side, Oak Lawn/Mt. Greenwood area.

I decided to run the Speed Inc TU1 225 225 .581 .581 113 .
I am running a 370 cube engine and figure if they can make 908Hp with a 370, T76, and that cam, then I should be able to put down decent numbers.
