Default nitrous on an eps 230/234?

ok so had pat spec me out a cam, came up with an EPS/LXL lobed 230/234 .600/.610 112 lsa. i'm considering spraying a little nitrous through a plate. i'm thinking it will be fine with the split and lsa, but just wanted a second opinion as i've never used nitrous. btw the build consists of pp'd & milled 799's, ls6 valves, 1518 springs, Ti retainers, stock rockers with trunion upgrade, through an ls6 intake and pacesetters. pretty sure this valvetrain should handle the n2o but let me know what you think.

That cam will work fine...you dont need to worry about a nitrous specific grind till you start spraying over a 200 shot.

Many people have sprayed reverse split cams with decent shots. While it may not be ideal its works just fine.

You wont have a problem.

hell man the stock cam loves n2o. i wouldn't worry about a nitrous specific grind until you get into the 300+ range.

i've seen a plethora of cams (stock and aftermarket) do great on 200-250 shots.

If you will spray below 150 shot mark .. the cam has nothing to do with nitrous ..sure it will be fine .. do it and enjoy the 1st time feeling
The nitrous cam is customized to eat the 250 - 300 shot
