Cam question (Nitrous related)
What's the theory on the "nitrous grinds"? I'm thinking of changing cams and want one that will optimize my nitrous set-up. I'm not too concerned about N/A perfomance as it's also a cruiser.
What specs should I look for on a "nitrous " cam?

How much Nitrous?
Mostly if it's a cruiser I would look at a cam with a higher LSA number. Usually that and a longer exhaust duration help.
There are also some tricks that racers do with the lobes on Nitrous Grind cams. Mostly it's shutting the valve extremly fast.

150hp shot. It's got stock heads, A4, PI 3200 and 3.73''s. I e-mailed Comp Cams about a suggestion but got no answer. Would I have to come up with some numbers and then have someone grind a cam to those specs?
Thanks
