The cam you have would work but it is prolly to big.Especially if you are going to run a stock bottom end and go for about 600hp.Many guys fun smaller turbo cams such as a ls6 or somthing in the mid 220s duration and any where from 550 to 580s lift.That cam might be fine but I could see it hurting the low end.

That Cam will work but it won't be ideal for a Turbo setup like your's. The heads are a good choice but not neccessary on the stock motor.I would do a LS6 Cam or 220 range Cam with 918 springs(or the one's you have listed) and run the Turbo with atleast 1 255 pump and 60lb injectors. That will get around 600hp.
BTW-this 408ci car runs a 218/230 Cam
