Default Whats a good nitrous cam?

I am looking for a mild to aggressive cam to run with a large wet shot. This will be with stage II heads, upgraded fuel setup, headers, etc. I was considering 224/224 .566/.566 112. Would this be a good cam? Any other suggestions?

How much n20 do you plan on spraying? If it is going to be less than 200-250 shot, just look into a good n/a cam and then spray the car.

I am eventually going to be spraying a 150wet...the cam I am going to use when I get my heads/cam setup going is the 226/232 .565/.585 112lsa cam.. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> That will be good N/A and alright for spray...the cam I have in the car right now is a 222/222 .563/.563 112lsa... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Hate to bring it up, but the hotcam I have heard is also very good for N20, with the extra exhaust duration.
