Smile Cam for Procharger?

Im getting ready to put an ATI D1SC on my 99 Camaro SS and was wondering if this would be a good cam for it? It is the Comp Cams XR265HR with 212/218 duration and .558/.563 lift with a 115 LSA or does anyone recommend a better one? Thanks

My car is in the shop right now, ousting my TR224 Obviously...

Putting in a TR 224/227 .563/.569 114LSA with Stage 2 6.0L heads and a D1SC. We'll see how it turns out next week

Nice, you will have to let me know how it all works. Where did the heads come from?

99, that 212 cam is pretty small, I would step it up to really get a good gain from a cam.

I consider 218/224 cams to be mild and good.

I consider 224/230 be the the next step up, still can shift it at 6500-6600.

I consider 230/236 to be a cam that might need to see 7000 rpms to work best.

I have a custom comp 218/224 cam with a lsa a little over 115 with the mild lobes(I would post the card if I could find it). I made 670RWHP with 9.5 psi at 6500. It is a mild cam but makes great power with a blower. I personally think most people go too agressive on FI cams.
