Default Head/Cam combo + supercharger

I'm curious how my future (a few weeks) setup would be with a supercharger added.

2002 Camaro Z28, 6 speed

PRC STG 2.5 heads
MS3 Cam
SLP Cold Air Package
Pacesetter long tube headers
Off Road Y
GMMG Catback

Stock everything else.


First of all, would the MS3 cam work with a supercharger? Preferably a Vortech system...

If so would it be ideal, or would stiching to a special blower cam produce SUBSTANTIALLY better numbers. ie: would it be worth going out and spending another $300-500 on a cam

Also what system/kit would work best with my combo, and how much power could I expect ???

thanks, any information is great, i'm just toying with the idea currently..

I've heard the MS cams are no good for boost. No personal experience though. Drop 4 bills on a cam. Its the brain that controls ANY set-up.
