Default Is F13 an ok blower cam?

I have a c5 that i will be installing H/C and was wondering if i wanted to add a blower later on, that the H/C would not cause any problems.

ALSO, not that great of a blower cam as you really want at least 6 degrees higher exhaust number vs intake on a cam that size for F/I. I also agree with the above statement on the lsa. Your cam would work but far from ideal.

Something like a 226/238 intake and exhaust on a bigger cam would be far superior as you have to get that exhaust out!!

o ya, im no cam/fi guru, but a cam with minimal overlap will do decently with fi, a larger split duration would do way better like the f7 from futral (224/230 on a 114LSA) but ehh like i said im just a kid who reads the internet alot, and everyone has a 9 sec custom everything car on here

I AGREE 1000%, that the FM7 is a KILLER F/I Blower cam and i was going to get that cam for my stock cubed forged LS6 build up on my D1SC LS6 motor which will be making 14lbs of boost!! I ended up with a smaller blower cam that east coast supercharging just perfected which is making well over 700rwhp on all forged 346 motors they are running with their NOVI HEAD unit 2000!!
