350 tpi . Cam and Nitrous.

I'm planning on doing a 350 tpi swap where my 305 tpi used to lay. I wanted to know what would be a good cam to use if I was planning on using nitrous? Everything else will stay stock except for the cam (obviously) rockers and springs. Any suggestions? I'll also be running a SuperRam intake instead of the stock TPI intake.

Re: 350 tpi . Cam and Nitrous.

Stock head deal if modded heads for more lift, and screw in studs i would not go any larger than comp 276hr stuff, 224/230 on a 110-112 or equivalent

A 269hr 218/224 is also a good milder cam with good power on something like that

Will need computer tuned

Yeah can run themwith 1.6's but heads will need to be setup for higher valve lift than .470-.480 ish. Guide bosses need machined down and studs need pinned or machined for screw in. Then need a valvespring around 130lb seat/350-370 lb open or so

Would that be a hydraulic roller or a hydraulic flat tappet?

Depends on the motor. Is it a roller block? Your current 5.0 is a roller and you can swap over the roller components if your 350 block is a factory L98 roller block

Yeah. It's a 5.0 out of 88 Iroc and the 350 will be out of a 92 Z28
