Default What cam could I get away with?

Sorry the search isn't working. I was looking into getting a cam package from TSP and I was looking at some of their packages. Right now I have ported LS1 heads with 2.02/1.57 valves, and the heads are milled .015. Car also has a 3500 stall and nitrous
I wanted to run the MS3 but I was told that wouldn't work. (I don't want to flycut). So I started looking at the torquer v.2, v.3, and the XS 233/239 .595/.603. Does anyone have any input on these cams and which one will work with my setup?

Thanks

I would call TSP and ask them, I have the 233/239 cam and I love it, the 233/239 won't have the torque numbers that the other two cams have. My car put down 400 rwhp at 6200 rpms and 360 rwtq at 5000 rpms and I LOVE THE WAY IT SOUNDS!

The MS3 will not clear those heads and valves without flycutting, you are correct on that. And honestly you really won't know unless you measure.. and you are listing duration and lift as factors when you should be listing duration, LSA, and advance.. lift doesn't really effect PTV.

I was going to get it on the standard 111 LSA. I think I'm gonna try the v3, I was just seeing if maybe someone on here had already tried that combination so I wouldn't have to check the PTV clearance.
