Default Can I use this heads/cam with a SC?

I have a Comp Cam 224/228 581/588 112lsa +4. Absolute Speed Stg 2 5.3 heads with crane duals yielding I believe a 10.8-1 compression. I currently make 409 rwhp, 405 rwtq and would like to get that up to 500. Hopefully I can use these.

I used to run a nx kit with a 125 shot. Too much of a hassle to remove the bottle, drive 25 miles to get it filled, heat it etc. I need power on demand!

With an ATI ProCharger you won't need to run much boost to get you to your goal, easily done! Bob

Yes, you can use them. You won't need much boost to meet your goal, and they will work just fine. Bob
