Cam suggestions
I need cam suggestions.
I have a 96 A-4 formula. I'm looking for a cam thats gonna work real good w/nitrous. I'm spraying the car now and it does real well mainly stock but winter is coming and its time to step up.
If it helps these are some of my plans(i'm open to suggestions on these also): Built 4l60 , better converter preferably built for my set up. I'm going to have the stock heads opened up a bit for spray , obviously better valve train , bigger t/b , long tubes , off road y , electric w/p , , Nx mass air kit , and built 10blt w/a 4.10 gear.
I want a cam that gonna come to life when i squeeze the trigger. I know the custom gring route but thought maybe a shelf cam will work. Let me know.
Thanks,

Is this primarily a track car? I say that because if you do any highway driving at all 4.10's will kill your gas mileage. I have 3.73's and they have great performance but I would still feel comfortable going on a road trip and cruising at 70 mph. And your probably not going to be spraying the car evertime you drive it if it is a street car, so I would go with more of an N/A cam. A lot of them will still respond very good with nitrous. You also need to say how large of a cam you want.
