Default Another Turbo Cam Question

I have a build going on in this forum for my 72 nova. I decided to scratch the ls6 cam for something a little better and aftermarket

Debating on a couple shelf cams: EPP FI/BRUTE SPEED CAM Or VA Speed Grind

Combo:
5.3 Stock bottom end with rods bolts
317 heads with patriot dual springs
ls1 intake
Stainless works headers
MP T76 Q Trim 1.0 AR Turbo
3.5" DP
60mm jgs gate/50mm bov
E85

I wont lie that I do like the lope as well.

Anyone on here spec cams well or reccomend someone. I have searched online and read multiple threads just want some upto date opinions

Id say the speedinc TU1 cam, it will have some lope to it and be good for a smaller displacement. They made over 700whp with the cam.

off the top of my heads i think its a 225/225 .581/.581 113lsa so it still has -1* overlap.

I used there TU2 in my 370 and liked the cam, sounded like a beasty NA cam and made great power, for the 300km i put on the motor before I spun a bearing lol

I emailed them on the TU1 and they recommended it for my FRC Vette (LS1) for a T76.
