I'm going to use one this time around, mostly because there was one in car when I bought it lol. It drove and idled fine, I dint drive it much but you definately know it has a cam with a lowered compression 347.

I'm sure its easily capable of low 9s, my old 222/228 115LSA XE cam was similar and ran 9.17 @ 149 with a D1SC.

as far as i remember the TR blower cam is the same cam as the CheaTR cam, im probably going to get one as im considering doing a FI setup down the road so i can use it for a little bump in NA power now and not have to change to a different cam later on. bump for more opinions on it though

The TR 'blower cam' I have is a 224/227 115LSA XE (.560 lift or something).

Not familiar with that one, I guess I have the old one, never really looked into it though. That cam would work, actually just about anything works with a centrifugal supercharger. If anything that one would idle pretty nice and should be easy to tune.

I have it. Runs great, idles nice, drives around town perfect. 5.25psi with ls6 intake, headers, P1SC, headers and Flowmaster. 458/429. I like it. I am going to reuse it when I eventually build a motor....
