Anyone know what would be a perfect cam for nitrous? About to run a 100 or 125 shot!

Read around or do a search on that man...I have heard some saying 100shot is fine on stock internals and cam......But if your looking for a cam...There is no reason not to get one!!

Nitrous will work with any cam, so you could choose a cam that will give you good n/a numbers too. Otherwise if you want a cam that shines specifically on the juice, look for a split duration cam with a lot more exhaust, and limit the ls1 to 114. Check the nitrous forum for better info.

typo... i believe he means LSA

i was wondering the same thing that 150shotWS6 was asking about. i did a couple searches and didn't find what i was looking for,... maybe i need to search some more.

i've been told that cams that get the most out of nitrous have a duration (@.050) around 215-225, with an LSA around 114.
i don't know how true this is, maybe someone can chime in!

Its my new 114 ci LS1 Its a 1.4" stroke crank and the engine revs to 15K RPM. Makes 14 ft lbs of torque and 25 peak HP @14K rpm. Im gonna try and market it to gm so they can get the cobalt to keep up with the hondas. Okay okay, yes, i meant LSA... Im just too used to typing ls1 i guess...

BTW, I agree with you. Cam should be choosen in function of N/A goals. Nitrous is just the icing on the cake.

150shotWS6, you'll spend 99.999% of your time without using the juice, so unless it's a drag racing only car, you should focus on the power goals and manners of you engine without nitrous.
