Default Blower Cam

Need a cam for 409 LS1 with 13psi vortech Blower.
Any input on a good cam to run on a street car.

What about a comp XE-R 226/234 114 LSA any one have some specs on this cam.

should work pretty good, although you might want to run more intake duration. n/a cars have been having good luck with cams with more intake duration than exhaust (reverse split). The intake manifold is the bottleneck on ls1's. Id suggest 232i and 236e. Should idle smoothly with the 409.

I have never run a ls1 with a supercharger so my opinion dont mean jack. i have been following the boards for awhile and just going off of trends I have noticed. The most important thing would be to get 1 7/8" headers instead of 1 3/4. That would help the car breathe.

What is the lift on that cam?

If I were you I would do some extensive research and call different blower shops and ask around. Ask for details on lift and duration. I believe you got the right idea when it come to the lobe seperation. you want to stay with 113-114?

Call GWP, Kenny was able to answer allot of my questions when I was shopping around for my blower cam.

Good luck.
