Duration sound ok, LSA would be good for the idle, but the lift maybe a bit much, springs would be taking a beating.

Thats a good forced induction cam. IMO You wouldnt be able to hear it really with a 116 lsa.

Good Stealth Cam, with the proper springs like Patriot extreme duals or shimmed Comp 921s there would be no issues. That cam will rev high so I would also think about beefing up your rod bolts.

I read in your sig STS, I assume Turbo. You do not need that much lift for FI. Speak to Patrick G, he is affiliated with Thunder and can spec you a custom cam just for your needs.
