The only person I know that has used it has one in his S10 TBI. He says it works great and only gives a trouble code when it's real cold out. However, the MPFI probably would have much different effects.
His screen name is MadMike and he's on the sportruck forum.

I have heard Blue Racer and Wolverine CAMS are not computer friendly.. They work great with carbed setups, but cause problems with MPFI...

So then the blue racer cam will work well with my firebird with a 2.8 Carb?

I had a blue racer cam "350" It wasent very agressive "numbers wise" but you could tell the engine had a cam in it at idle and it dident run to bad either. compared to the comp270H's I use now the blue racer was much meaner sounding but less top end power.
I never seen one for a 6 but if thier v6 cams are like thier v8 ones, thier very good.

I saw it in their catalog a long time ago but never paid any real attention to it.
