Default Best cam for magnacharger?

What would be a good blower cam for this? Also I may switch to a twin screw when its available so I dont want to have to change cams again.

thanks

I had a custom 230/230 .598/.598 114 LSA cam in mine. Pulled 505 rwhp with ported heads and still managed 25 mpg on the highway with decent drivability.

there's a guy around here that put a 224/230 cam (not sure of lift specs) on his goat with a magnacharger and he picked up 50 hp with this cam.

believe he's on the gto board and goes by waveydaveygto or something like that.

I've got an LPE GT2-3 in mine (207/220 .571/.578 118.5) it hasn't been on the dyno, but it pulls hard with 5psi, I'm estimating somewhere around 475-500RWHP

Another vote to the FM7 224/230 cam here. Im making 550rwhp 500rwtq with 7.5-8psi only. It drives like a TR224 114 cam too which is not bad. Good luck.
