What is the best cam for N20??

I have to get the cam soon!!!!!! Burned two lobes on a ZZ9. Engine is ready to go together. Money is no object here. What is the best hydraulic roller camshaft for a 5.7L with Nitrous? Modifications are 52 mm TB, ported plenum, SLP runners, Big Mouth Manifold, 1.52 RR's, 58cc AFR 190 heads (max lift-.550"), 1 5/8" SLP headers, 350 ci. ZZ4 block, 2400 stall converter, 3.73 rear gear ratio.

BTW it's a NOS #5151 kit. I'm running a 150 shot of N2O.

What about Crane's #109831?

Duration @ .050: 222°/2307deg;
Lobe Separation: 112°
Gross Lift: .509''/.528''

284/292° - Strong mid range torque, street & mild bracket. Fair idle. RPM range 2500-6000. Cruise RPM 3000-3800. Comp. 9.5-10.7:1.

This Crane PowerMax camshaft features a dual pattern for balanced intake and exhaust flow. The special profile produces maximum low, mid and upper rpm power. It's designed to maximize the effects of nitrous oxide, supercharger and turbocharger systems.
