Default Centrifugal Blower cam decision?

Hi everyone,
im a newby from australia and have a commodore ute
(which runs the ls6 ls1, and T56).
a run down on it is:

stock cam ('02)
texas speed 7.400 chrome moly rods
titanium retainers
pcr double valve springs
yella terra aluminum 1.8 RR
60lb semiens injectors
V2SQ vortech making 155kpa/7lb?? (non-intercooler for now)
2 bar tune
high flow exhaust
stock compression
water injection

N/A it was making 348rwhp in your talk

but now its got a street tune and unsure but approx 430hp?,

now im looking at cams to go for and want something thats gonna help the most for down low/mid in the rev range as i drive 90% of the time under 2k.

so im looking @ something like these

1. 214/230 .601/.579 117 LSA (TR blower)
2. 224/232 .581/.595 114 LSA (SP2)
3. 224/230 .581/.588 114 LSA (offshelf comp cams)+2 or +4 maybe

im really digging the #1 because i think it would be the best and wouldnt mind something different or custom if anyone has something that could suit my needs,
dont want it to idle too lumpy so 114LSA is pushing the limits

future mods will be intercooled, 9lb/11lb
my old man has a 232/234 112 and i want something completely opposite to that to compliment the blower down low.

Any help or suggestions reccomended

Welcome aboard! Check out our blower camshaft above, it has proven to work quite well in many applications.
Here is KP's T/A with our cam in it.

I have seen good results with a 226/230 600/600 113lsa, 4psi with a d1sc = 500rwhp, mustang dyno.

For what you want, anything bigger then a 230s duration would be a stretch. If tuned right and spec'd right it could be done, but your just looking for a little bump in performance and a smaller cam can do that for you perfectly.

Your number 3. choice is a cam that I worked with Brian Brennan with when he was working for Comp and all the changed from the cam I was running was the exhaust lift from .581- .588 he said it was for propriatary reasons. It was a great cam made great power and didn't have any tuning issues at all idled great and you could lug it around in the 1800rpm range all day with out an issue. I am sure the others would be great as well just giving you my take on what I have run and the results I have had with it etc... Made 601rwhp with a Vortech G-trim (MAXED!) to say the least LOL! And that was with a 9:1 347 with H/C Headers, corsa, 6 spd ,12bolt and 3:73's GL with your choice I am sure you will be fine

how would that 224/230 go with the advance in it.. to suit my lower end needs, do you think it would make a noticable difference advanced or as it is.

a guy down here in AUS ran the sc2 from speed inc and with a tune only from stock cam in a ls1 it went from 443rwhp to 521rwhp, running a vortech on 10lb,
