Question Head cam combo for 383 guys

Just wondering what head cam combinations you all were running. I'm planning on spraying. Maybe 200 or so. Any good nitrous cams for 383's out there? I'm probably going with a Total Engine Airflow heads. What do you suggest? Thanks for the input.

i will be doing a 383 motor (scat crank, 6" eagle H-beam rods, SRP flattop pistons...etc) from NuTek ( i will change from the KB flattop pistons to SRP forged flattop pistons). i have LT1 heads which i will be using with custom cam for NA 383 from NuTek as well all these will be used in my 383. check my website for my LT1 heads flow numbers. the compression i'm aimming to in the 383 is 11.1 to 11.3 :1. i don't plan on using nitrous but i will sell this 383 motor later to my friend who will use a 150hp shot. you can tell NuTek you want a custom cam for your mods, the 383 and the nitrous.

1 FastRedZ you will be very happy with TEA's head work. Are you using your Lt1 heads or do you have LT4's or AFR's. About the cam I know I will get stoned for saying this but I believe you are better off getting a cam best suited for your NA setup unless you are spraying over 250shot and it is only a drag car. The nitrous cams really will not give you any advantage otherwise. Just my 2 cents.

From: looking for a flow bench so Brook and I can race
combo motorsports has a KILLER GP going on right now on rotating assemblies, maybe you can tell them that you want a whole motor? if not buy that stuff and build up yourself.
that
a custom ground cam
and their stage 2 heads

200 shot is nothing for even their cheapest 383 motor.

I wouldn't look anywhere else for a motor.
their pricing is amazing too.

as far as i am concerened, theyare the best at what they do, their customer service is unbeatable.
