Default Is .601 lift on a 214 duration too much on a FI car?

I am looking a the TR blower cam with a 214 duration .601 lift intake. What do you guys feel about the lift on this cam. Is it too extreme? I know that comp cams XLI extreme cam has this lift on a 214, but I don't know if it is designed for a blower car. Just want to make sure that I make the right choice before I dive in. Thanks

I've run several .60x - .61x lift cams.

For sure I have no doubt that you can go .6xx lift, but my question is the .601 on a 214, and how steep of a ramp the lifter must go on that duration. It maybe perfectly ok but I just wanted to get everyones take. Thanks

well my lifts are just under .600 but my durations are greater so my ramp rates and stuff would be greater that TR's blower cam

My understanding is that your ramp is less because the duration is longer that make the lift upwards slower and not as steep.

Ran 250+ on both intake/exhaust at .050 with just under .700" lift. It was on the small side but that was great for street driving.
