Cam/blower Question

Duration @ 0.050" (I/E): 226/236
Lift (I/E): 0.525"/0.525"
Lobe Separation: 110
RPM Range: 2500 - 6500

Here are the specs for my cam , I fear that the lob seperation is not compatable w/my blower setup . The cams lobe speration is 110 .
Do you think i should go ahead and use this cam w/my procharger ? Will it still make pretty good gains ?

That cam has more overlap than is optimal for a blower cam. But you will still gain a lot of hp. Why not try it and if you aren't satisfied (or when you get the urge) swap out the cam? You could always wait for when the motor is out anyway (after it blows up)
