Default Is This A Good Cam For N20?

Okay The Cam Is The Tsp 235/240, .598"/.603", 112 Lsa. The Question I Have Is If This Cam Would Be Good For N/a And Nitrous Use. I Am Only Spraying A 100 Shot For Now But I Might Bump It Up To A 150 In The Future But I Know Im Going To A 125 Tomorrow So I Guess My Question Is If This Cam Will React Good With The Nitrous And All Motor? Im Looking To Make Atleast 400rwhp On Motor Alone And 500+ On The Bottle And Torque Wise Id Like To Be At 550+ On The Bottle And ~400 On Motor. Please Put In Ur Thoughts If You Know What Your Talking About, Im Looking For Honest Advice And If There Is Another Cam That Would Be Good That You Know Of Please Let Me Know. And Yes I Have Done Many Searches On N20 Cams But I Just Wanted To Ask About This Particular One. And Btw I Have The Bolt Ons Just Like Everyone Else... Intake, Exhaust, Headers, Ls1edit, Ect. And This Is My Everyday Driver So I Want A Comfortable Cam Thats Not Gonna Shake Me To Death In 5 O'clock Traffic Jams. Thanks

Unless you spray over a 200 shot, you need only choose a cam based on its performance on motor. The cam you've chosen is pretty big for a 346. How it runs depends on the installed intake centerline. Do you know if it's ground with any advance to it?

i would be concerned with a cam that large having driveability issues in 5 oclock traffic - a super tune will help with that but i doubt it will cure it

what he said regarding spraying cams

Anything between a TR224 (224/224 112LSA) and an FMS F13 (230/232 112LSA) would be smart. Anything bigger starts to give diminishing returns for power vs. driveability issues.
