If it's a centrifugal SC, the hot cam should work great! 218/228, good idle, not too agressive, I think it's a 112lsa. Go for it...

Not to steal the thread but what about the hot cam w/ a turbo setup like the STS?

I would think a cam with highlifts and a high LSA would be better for a turbo. Something like the LPE GT2-3 or along the lines of that.

The GT2-3 is better suited for blowers, like the Radix as it was designed around that. The LS6 cam is great for turbo cars though.

Why would the LS6 cam be better than the GT2-3 in a turbo car? LSA for the LS6 is like 114 or something and the GT2-3 is 116. The lift on the GT2-3 is also above 600 on intake and exhaust. I don't know much about turbo stuff but this is just what I would think would work.
