Lightbulb Looking for a Turbo camshaft

Hi
I am looking for a Reverse split Turbo camshaft for my new project, I am installing a STS turbo system on my car.

I have a Brand new 214-224 560/570 115 + 3 degs Compcam Blower camshaft.
And a like new set of SLP bolt on weld on subfram connectors.

I would tade both of mine, the blower cam and the subframs , for a New Turbo camshaft.
we could have a deal
Let me know
thank you

you are going about this the wrong way. You need to determine which kit you are going with and WHY you think you need a reverse split. turbo=reverse split is not a given.

well how am i going the wrong way???, i am installing a STS turbo system, and everyone is telling me that installing a turbo camshaft would give me optimum performance.
A blower cam could give me revision,

well the cam is still avaible

A reverse split is made to crutch a setup that has very high exhaust back pressure from a small turbine housing/wheel. I don't think you will have that problem. You can use a standard split or even a no split cam. FWIW I changed from a 220/224 114 S/C cam to a 231/226 115 cam made for my turbos. I lost .10 in the 1/8 and gained 1mph from the 1/8 to 1/4. So my mph is higher but my et is .10 slower with the bigger turbo cam. I shoulda kept the s/c cam. It had better idle, driveability and et. There is no set "turbo cam". Each kit is different.

so you think the 214-224 560/570 115+3deg Blower Cam will work fine???

Thats what i was thinking and with more exhaust duration , it might work well to spool up The STS rear mounted T67 turbo,

Merkel engine rebuilders said that the 214-224 cam that i have should work fine,
What you think???
