cam for 383 LT1 w/D1SC 12 lbs So ive decided to take on a new project this winter by throwing a procharger on my current setup (in sig). Planning on getting the compression down to the lower 9s with some AI Trick Flow 215s and running around 12 lbs.
The question i have is how much power am i leaving on the table if i dont put a boost cam in there? Currently i have a Comp 224/230 113 .570s
Also...is there anything else i will need besides new injectors and a new fuel pump?
I appreciate all of your input

I don't know alot about boost, but:
1. A cam matched to the application is always going to give you more drivability and power as compared to an unmatched one. The difference may be significant.
2. You're already doing a S/C, lot of work to not get the full potential of it.
Should talk to someone who does custom cams and see what they say.

not an expert, but I think that you would need a cam with a little more LSA than 113. Most of the boost cams and people I have spoke with that are S/C'd are in the 116 area. Just my thoughts.

It's a sticky in the FI section. Tells you all the supporting mods needed or suggested for a FI set up. Also, check out NRP. They're a supporting vendor. They list a bunch of custom FI cams. Good Luck and let me know how it turns out!
