Default TR 220 cam

Just wondering if anyone has used a TR 220 cam with a turbo.
220/220 .581 112lsa, 5.3 with ported 243 heads, th350 3500 stall. Building a turbo set up now. Any input...

That should be a good cam, if it works good without the turbo it should work well with one since it is relatively mild and has no overlap. You dont need much cam with a turbo. I'd love to see anyone actual results with that cam, I just got a 220/220 on 114+0 from Comp Cams for an L92 headed 6.0 turbo engine Im doing.

I just wasn't real sure about the 112 lsa. I have heard that it is not a good turbo cam, and i've heard people using 112 or less???? I already have the TR220 so I would like to use it instead of buying another one.

I think the tighter lobe seperation matters more on a larger cam where there is alot of overlap, on that cam there is still no overlap even with the 112lsa so I dont think it is detrimental at all. That cam will probably work great.

That cam will work fine. Only reason I didn't go a 112* on my new 365 is I want the smoother idle. Currently Im running a 112lsa with a restrictive Tc76 and it still ripps ***.
