Default TFS as cast forged 346 what cam???

im building a forged 346 ls1 and will be runing the trick flow as cast heads. they will be milled a little so my compression ratio will around 11 to 1. this is going into my car which is goning to be full wieght, m6 car with 4.10 gears(12 bolt). also going to have a fast 92 intake setup with a 125 to 150 shot and 1 7/8 kooks headers. i will mostly be running the car N/A but i will spray at the track about half the time. i am trying to figure out what would be a good cam for street/strip and good for n/a and n20. not just a all out n2o cam or all out n/a....just looking for a happy medium. i was kinda thinking of something similier to TSPs 233/239 cam on a 112+1 but i wouldn't mind going a little bigger if i had to. i would like to dip into the 10s on spray and right mid to low 11's n/a. right now i have ported 5.3 heads with a TSP tv 2 cam and i hit 11.8's full wieght with a little to much gear(4.56's). so hopefully i am building a little stronger setup. just let me know what kinda cams are out there or any idea's on a custom ground cam.

Keep the cam you have for now and see how it works.

230s range camshaft should fill the bill just fine for what you want to do. I suggest 111LDA.

The 233/239 camshaft responds well to nitrous. I would talk to one of the custom cam guru's on this site and see what they suggest.
