Well think strictly race, I don't care how it idles. This is on a 427 race motor. We are pegging the boost gauge at 30psi but not making the power we want with a 238/248 115 +0 Comp cam. I think this cam has about 13 deg of overlap in it.

LSInnovations, what cam are you running? pm me some details please

I thought LS1innovations was kidding.

When I had my 236/246 blower cam I was told that the NMRA guys run more cam than that. Comp suggested a 240/244 for me, so maybe folks would suggest 24x/25x stuff.

What have you made so far? My setup is VERY similar to yours
