LT1 Cam Question

Ok im new around here but i have been told this is the place to go. i have a 94Z28 with the following mods

383
Forged Crank
Forged Rods
Forged 11.8:1 Pistons
Filed Rings For Nitrous
Hardened Pushrods
New Roller Lifters
Stiffer Springs
Ported Heads From Local Shop
1.6rr's
58mm TB
Ported Mass Air
Ported Intake Manifold
NOS Wet Kit
Some other stuff im forgetting but you get the idea.

So my question is what cam should i run with this setup and injectors?
I have a hotcam that i bought(the hotcam kit) but i think its going to be too small for the setup im going to be running. I thought about running 30# injectors also but then i wasnt sure if that would be enough? any help would be appreciated.

You bumped your thread in an hour and a half. Patience goes a long ways.

Tell us about the heads. Flow numbers?
Is your compression 11.8? Pistons are not the only factor
Where do you want to rev to?

Everything has to match. For a shot in the dark I say the gm847. Been around forever and works in anything. Look to Loyd or Brett for custom designs (your best choice)

i was told to check into the comp cams cc302 cam i believe and some of there others. i wanna rev to about 7,000 its not going to be a daily driver so im not worried about gas mileage. i will have to find the stuff on the heads, everything is scattered because i just moved, i just want the car back together. i will be running on nitrous mainly. the heads are just stock lt1 heads ported for the 383. my compression ratio is 11.8:1.

Someone said comp cams makes a cam that has a .619/.623 with 1.6rr's have you heard of that one?
Sorry for trying to bump it so fast i read the ttt thingy

my bad

Cam is dependent on your head flow and SCR/DCR and RPM's
Call a cam manufacturer and see what they recommend.
Your SCR will limit the cam size on your set up.
