That is the key for a FI cam, we don't use any of comp cams using XER or LSL lobes.
If comp doesn't have the lobe we'll use Bullet-the lobe is the most important thing in getting a HR to make power-and with the blower that means RPM.
As far as overlap-my own personal cam has 24 degrees of overlap and can get driven anywhere-even my wife can drive it.
Now I won't recomend my cam to everyone-but if you want to make big power-don't be scared of overlap.

I thought LSL lobes were pretty mild. One cam I was looking at was LSL intake, XE exhaust.

WCCH recently ported my heads, upgraded rockers and replaced hollow stem valves and all valve guides. I am not worried about any valve train issues on my set up with the cam i listed in beginning in my thread. I am just undecided on what blower and setup to go with. I do love the cam I just put in, sound and all. I do have stock ls7 bottom end, pistons and all. I don't want alot of boost cause I know I am limited. Just wondering others opinions?

We have MANY customers who have been in your shoes... After having heads/cam upgrades for a while it was time to add some boost... While our "Annihilator" is not the "perfect" blower cam, it works extremely well with street applications. We have about a dozen C6Zs out there running our Annihilator with the A&A supercharger kits making 700rwhp..
One of our customers made some passes at the IRS shootout and was running consistent 10.00s@ 146mph with this same combination..
Feel free to give me a call if you would like to discuss your goals more in depth.

I believe Ron, is talking about Lou's car in the above caption! It was a 720 HP Build and I have personally rode in this car! IT IS MIND BLOWING!
Also, I AM A VENGEANCE CUSTOMER FOR LIFE! These guys know their stuff, above that they know customer service, and after starting with a 10-15K build, I now have a build in upwards of $100k with a 457 RHS and Custom Twin Turbos on my z06 all done by Vengeance and HONESTLY, I WOULD NOT HAVE IT ANY OTHER WAY.
Ron and the team at Vengeance have done nothing short of treating me like family! They have a top notch staff, and most of all they are HONEST and INTEGRITY INTACT!
Being a business owner, RON KNOWS WHAT IT TAKES TO CONDUCT BUSINESS! I have had a perfect experience with them and will do many more cars with Vengeance in the future. WHY, only four words can express it:
UNMATCHED SERVICE, PROVEN PERFORMANCE!

I think something like a 224/238 on a 116 is good.

The OP is rockin' 427 cubes. Cubes eat duration and overlap. I'd bet he'll be really happy with his cam choice. If he likes it n/a, he'll really like it with positive manifold pressure.

Yeah scratch that idea. I for some reason thought it was a LS3 but had to go back and read it.
