Cam LSA and Nitrous
Since many people (seems like I hear this "everywhere"
) think that cam's down on a 106 , 108, 110 Ect...Lobe seperation angle, aren't ideal, (or in many's opinions) "good at all" while using nitrous, I figured mabe some of the big cam guru's on the board could chime in about what they thought on this topic...............for myself, Iv'e had a pretty good amount of experience over the years with quite a few different motors on the bottle(up to 175 horsepower levels)....and have never seen "anything" to indicate that a cam on a 108LSA gives a disadvantage when compared to a "identical" spec cam on a 114LSA, many times not only did the power Naturally Aspirated pick up, but on the bottle as well........I feel that with a shot up to 175HP(not sure with higher power levels), a cam that's ideal for Nat/Asp with mabe just a little more exaust duration is perfect for the bottle as well..........Im really interested to hear what others think about this, and what they're experiences have been.............thanks...............Joe
