Default Need cam suggestions!!

The setup is a a 416 LS3 with tfs245s with twin TC 76/68s. I will be running a fast 102mm intake as well. The cam that is in it now is 257/266 .645 .622 114LSA, and I am guessing it won't work.

Thanks in advance!

Its big... but id be tempted to try it just for ***** and giggles....If it was solid roller id defintely try it. Off the cuff for a hydraulic roller... 243/255@ ..050...118+4 or thereabouts. How aggressive the cam is is up to you and what you are doing with the car. Theres definetly a window of mild to wild a cam guy could operate in.

Did a cam for a 429 sbf with those exact turbos and the same cc intake runner heads... its 262/265@.050. Car is 3400 pounds with a glide and ran 8.28@171 mph on 19 pounds of boost.

I dk if i want to try it for ***** and giggles to be honest with you. I would much rather just have a cam spec'd for the combo and be done with it. I know cam swaps aren't hard but I like to do stuff once and be done.

Biggest question is I know I have enough turbo to destroy this LS3 block, so what is peoples input on how much power I shove through a LS3 bored .05 over with 4 bolt heads, main studs, and callies h-beam rods?
