what cam for lq4 nitrous engine?
I am building my first engine for a 2000 mustang. i have an lq4 engine that i am getting balanced stock crank stock rods and replacing the pistons with some forged pieces to bump my compression to 10.5-11. i will be running cnc'd l92 heads and a direct port nitrous ls3 intake. i plan on using a t56 magnum in the car. anyways thats my plan but i dont know where to start with the cam... i want to be able to have decent driveability cause i like to cruise around alot. thanks to anyone for advice on my build!

How much Nitrous? I imagine at least 200 to justify direct port.
I would definitely talk with Kip at CAM MOTION to get the right
Specification.
My .02 start with 227*/235* 115*+3* .610"/.590"
then add 2-3* exhaust duration per 100 HP of N2O depending
On the exhaust ratio of your heads and how free-flowing your
Exhaust system is.
