I've been well over 1000HP with my Isky 215/.566" 145mph in a 4875 lb 4x4 truck. 370/pt88. And just recently went 130mph in denver at 5860' elevation while testing my Isky tripple 12 (212/212,112lsa) in a stock lq4, 76mm turbo. Same truck. The tripple 12 cam is what I would be running in this app. It has good power and spool, with a slight lope at idle.

I'm in the process of installing the Isky "triple 12" as well. PM Stock48, he knows where you can get an Isky cam.
