Default cam shaft for A&A V3 Si build

I'm currently having the A&A V3 Si kit installed on the 01 Vette. I wasn't going to do a cam change but HP greed got the better of me. LOL My tuner recommended the following cam. Just asking all the people in the know what their thoughts are on it.

should work fine. i was going to suggest the ccp jam cam but it seems its no longer available. the btr stage 3 cam is also a great choice.
just dont let anyone convince you that you need a blower specific cam. its been proven that na cams actually make more power and torque where its needed and will make the same peak power with less boost. you see maybe 1-1.5lbs less of peak boost but thats a good thing. boost is a measurement of restriction.

full send buddy. post videos when youre finished.

I've heard a ton of recommendations for the jam cam too...shame if it's not available anymore. Couldn't someone just duplicate the grind though?

Subscribing to this as I just pulled my heads and had 2 failed lifters. Cam is trash so I’m in the market for another. Centri car as well.

Not an A&A kit but running an ecs 2200 Novi. I had landspeed developement spec me a cam for my car. I told them I wanted mid range, stock rev, and lope. I'm running 9 psi on a stock block.

Here's what they sent me. Hope you guys can read it. I have not yet installed it though so I have no idea how it's sounds or performs. He did repeat that this would be a great cam for what I was looking for.

That one looks close to the jam cam, a bit smaller even. Interested in how u make out with it.

did the tune and dyno yesterday. transmission is having some issues from the 2-3 shift so we were not able to dyno with the converter locked up. we stopped at 562 to the wheels. looks like a tranny is in the near future.

Egad! He's right. There are no more. I've always turned people to BTR for them recently, but now they are adiosed. I guess mine will be one of the last new ones to fire up this Spring.

Ah well, tech and testing have caught up and it is a bit outdated grind now.
