If you are only going to run up to a 250 shot just get a decent NA cam. You really only need nitrous cams for shots past 250.

I would go with the MS3 or MS4 if you're looking for a donkey dick cam. Good split for the spray, and will put down the # your looking for on motor.

Just make sure your PTV clearance is there.

i disagree..maybe up to a 150 shot...175 or larger gol custom...the cam in my car has a 10 degree split and 0 overlap.....you dont want alot of overlap on a big shot....a 150 or smaller just a good na cam...

I agree. 250 or less=whatever cam you want. Not that you couldn't pick up a little more with a nitrous friendly cam, but how often will it be on the spray? If it's a nitrous drag car only, get a nitrous cam. If not, cam it for n/a. I see that Patrick G recommends the same as well, and there are probably not a lot of people on here with more cam knowledge. Just my 02.
