I'd like to replace my stock cam, ONCE!!! Down the road, I 'may' purchase a turbocharger (sts, if trials are good) or NOS (probably 5177 kit). I'll replace my cam before that. Is there a cam that's suitable for both? Unlike some of you mad-scientists, I don't want to go messing around in there more than once. Thanks for your input.

 

2 different types of cams.

 

Replace the cam when you decide.

 

Both of those cams are completely different.

They both also depend on alot of things.

On a turbo cam if you can balance the backpressure of the exhaust manifold with the boost pressure than you have a different cam from one that's unbalanced. Usually it's a smaller than normal camshaft vs a NA application.

A N2O cam usually likes more duration so he small turbo cam is not even close. That and a N2O cam likes alot of advance most times too.

Now you also want a NA cam on top of that, again big difference.

A N2O cam and a NA cam can be very close so that's not a bad idea.

hold off till you decide on power adder.
like said befor N2O/NA like bigger cams, and turbos would benifit more with a set of good heads, but a small rev split cam would prob be best.
