MTI C2 cam ok for a supercharger? the cam specs are 224/224 .581/.581 112. from reading other posts I see that not many if any are using higher lift(more than .561) and not more than 220 duration. I tried to search about this but didn't come up with anything that helps.

Re: MTI C2 cam ok for a supercharger? I had one from ARE before I bought this Lingenfelter that I have now that looked pretty good for boost:
224/224 .581/.581 114+4
The cam had very little overlap because of the LSA and the ground in advance. I almost wish I hadn't sold it.

Re: MTI C2 cam ok for a supercharger? No that is what happened to my first engine! The cam was not set-up to run a blower and I bolted it on there and went. My own dumbass fault, but we learn from our mistakes I guess.

Re: MTI C2 cam ok for a supercharger? Like scott says, you want a split cam...I'd go with something on a 114LSA or greater. A tighter LSA will produce blow-through, and you'll lose boost. Lift is determined by your head flow numbers.
