Default Cam?

Hey Guys I Have A 98 Ta. That Has A Ls2(6.0) Motor With The Patriot Heads(64cc)and The Patriot Cam(226 585). I Want To Spray The Motor On Top Of That. Is That A Good Cam For Nitrous. If Not Which Cam Do U Guys Recommend? I Was Thinking Of A 150-200 Shot.

You will make power regardless of cam size. Generally you will be wanting to have a larger exhust lift/duration to expell the extra exhaust made by the nitrous.

What are the rest of the specs on the cam anyhow?

If you are spraying a 150 shot it would probably suffice. Now if you start to go higher then I would get a cam that works great N/A as well as goes crazy on the hose. 224/230 .581/.592 114 @ 112ICL is the nitrous grind that i run in my Z. The cam sees a 200-400 shot and works/reacts great to nitrous. That was just an example of what the specs on a nitrous/traditional split cam look like.
