Default c5 z06 blower cam

getting ready to order a blower cam for my 02 z06. The car has full exhaust and will be running stock cubes, heads, intake/tb, etc. Doing the cam install first then going with the supercharger kit down the road (budget). Looking at a couple of cams right now. My car is a street car above all else and i want good street manners.

1. ECS blower cam
2. LGM G5xB

any tips or other cam selections i should look at?

I don't think the ECS cam will make that big of a difference. I have that LG cam and damn did it make a difference over another so-called blower cam. I gained on average 35/55. Huge seat of the pants feel.

A little bigger than that cam is Exotic Performances blower cam. A lot of happy people with that one too.

For good street manners, look for something in the mid 220's on the intake side, low 230's on the exhaust, and around a 115LSA. I've heard of folks claiming bigger cams had "excellent" street manners. That hasn't been my experience. A cam like this won't give up much power wise vs one that bucks and shakes. If you don't mind a little buck and shake, go bigger.
