Building an Lq9 with 317's and an LSA supercharger, wondering which cam is better LS9 or LS6 hoping for 500-550whp. Also want nice drivability

Why? Lq9 with ls3 heads so you don't have to run a stupid adapter plate is a better option. Then you can use the ls9 cam since it's designed for rectangular ports. You have a big enough bore to rub the ls3 heads may as well considering how cheap they are and how well they flow.

Either or....any stock cam could easily make the power, those or a few dozen others too.

Just use what you have.

my thought was (which may be totally wrong) that you can make good power gains by adding a cam with this combo and I will be getting it dyno tuned and only wanted to pay for the tuning once.

just not sure what cam to use or stay with the stock one
