Default what do you think of this cam for 402??

Just wondering what the public thinks of this cam, is it going to have good driveability with a good tune? ( i think speed inc will tune) it is a comp xer287hr 238/240 duration, 605/609 lift, 112 lsa and it has 2 degrees of advance ground in. I am probably going with the patriot heads, 62 cc with my flattops (2cc releifs) that should put me around 11.5:1 cr. When i got the shortblock the cam was installed with another 2 degrees advance on the chain. for a total of 4. I plan on running a 150 shot it. Wondering also if the advance is a good idea with nitrous?? I called comp to get the specs and they said it is the biggest cam they offer for gen 3. Which just made me wonder how the hell it is going to drive. I dont want it dying all the time and want gobs of low end. I know that driveability is a relative term, but just looking for some input.

That cam is not even close to being the biggest Gen III cam offered by Comp Cam. Tell that rep to actually read his own Master Lobe Catalog. Wow.
Anyway, I ran a 244/250 Comp Cam with an A4 and a 4000 converter. It was suprisingly streetable. It's all in the tune and takes time and patience to nail it. I'm sure it will be no problem for Speed Inc.
