Default Using a 233/239 112 cam with a maggie?

Will I have any issues running this cam (233/239 112) and a magnuson supercharger? I have read a cam closer to 224/224 is better option but would rather keep my current cam if it will run good with a blower.

This is for a 2001 Z06 with LS6 2.5 heads, LG pro longtubes, and the cam listed above.

Look into the lingenfelter GT2-3 cam... awesome FI cam...

207/220 duration @ .050 .573/.580 I believe its on a 118LC

You can go from there and adjust to get the custom grind that will work best for you...

maybe a 222/230 .595/.615 115 would work for you...

It might run better than you think. Check out this thread. He is using the MS4 which is even bigger. I have the 233/239 and was debating the same thing. I think cam selection is less important with positive displacement blowers as opposed to centrifugal blowers where power curve is very important. https://ls1tech.com/forums/dynamometer-results-comparisons/783269-02-magnacharged-camaro.html. That is the highest number posted yet for a maggie on a F-body and just so happens it is also the biggest cam usd with one so far.

I did a bit of research on FI guys running large cams, and most of them did surprisingly well. At least better than the general consensus around here will have you believe. Try it. if you dont like it, then go and change it.
