Comp Cams good for Turbo

I bought this cam thinking i was going to run no2 but have since changed my mind. Please let me know if this cam would still be good.
Valve lift int:.522 exh:.529 duration at .05 intake 212exhaust 218 and lsa of 114. So far i have a main support with arp main studs cryo treated crank main and rod bearing and rods. I am running the stock crank with CAT Hbeam rods mahle pistons and rings. Afr 205 heads comp cams lifters pushrods and rocker arms. The compression ratio is about 8.7. i plan on running a t76 for this. and oh yea this is all going in a 66 chevelle that i am building as we speak. please let me know if i should change anything.
Thanks
Darin

I've heard of stock LS1 cams making 800+ to the wheels. That cam will work but why not sell that and get a cam that will work best for your future setup?

The added duration will help make a little more power. The setup you describe can easily make 600-700rwhp.

Looking at the first grind they have it looks similar to the comp with 6* more intake duration (than the comp). I'm curious also since I have the same cam in my car, IMO it seems like it would be a good canidate (as in it's not to big).
