Question ATI Procharger Cam selection

Hi:
I need help this is driving me crazy. I have a 2000 c5 vette with stock short block(346ci). The mods I made are:Lts(1 3/4 primaries) with 3" piping and magnaflow cat back system(modified to 3"), port and polished stock throttle body,modified mass air flow and 160 thermostat. It is a six speed and a 3.42 diff.I will be installing a stage II ATI procharger supercharger kit(PSC-1). This vette will be for street performance and ocasionally taken to the track. here is the question What cam so I install? I was checking a comp cams 224-230 @.50 with 581 -588 lift and a 114 LSA also was looking at Epp blower cam 232-240 @ .50 with a 595-608 and a LSA 115. Very concern of tire spinning since is for street performance. And very concern about CLA I have no Idea of either 108 o 110 or any other. Any suggestions?, Any other cams?
Thanks JJ

Our blower cam http://www.exoticperformanceplus.com....html?item=679 has proven itself over and over again. We first used it in this 346 C5 Z06. http://www.exoticperformanceplus.com...Car.php?car=26 Bob

I think the EEP blower cam is much more than you need for a stock shortblock...honestly I think its more cam than needed for anything typical 600 rwhp type procharger setup.

I would recommend a XE-R lobed 220/224, 224/230 isnt a bad choice either but if you are going to limit it to 550 rwhp or so, then even those cams are more than needed....

Just a stock LS6 cam would do the job fine actually...

Im running the comp 224/230 with .581/.588 I think I made a good choice. I put down some decent numbers with it.

M/T drag radials are a great way to go to control wheelspin, but if you run them all the time you won't get a lot of mileage out of them.

EPP Blower Camshaft $389.99
Patriot Gold Valvesprings with titanium retainers $255.00
Comp double roller timing chain pn#7153 $124.61
Comp 7.40 pushrods $124.00

Thanks. Bob
