LT1/LT4 cam w/nitrous

ok i plan on hopping up my LO3.im going with a speed demon 650VS carb,RPM intake,S/R torquers,MSD 6AL with an ignition timing controller,and an LT1/LT4 cam.unless of course either of those cams wouldnt support a 125 shot of juice as well as a specially ground cam would.i know that people use nitrous in their 4th gen LT1's and 4's all the time without doing a cam swap.but thats in those motors.not a carbed 305.so im just wondering if it will work in a 305.thanks for any feedback!

I could be wrong but, I think the LT1 cams had a tiny bit of overlap and this could allow a little cylinder pressure to bleed of and save you some catastrophy later.
