I'm not sure where you are buying superchargers but up here or with exchange it's in the 7-10K range to even think of a supercharger and that's just the part!!
Labour rates around here are from $140-$180 hr
Back yard guys are $80-$100 hr
Basic tunes are minimum $1,000 - $1200
If you want to play you gotta pay.
Don't let me tell you our lumber prices!
Maybe I'll just drive the damn thing as is, with 6 months of frozen streets highways it ain't much use anyways.Wine making or wood turning may be a better route.

Canadian Hotrodders have it pretty bad. If you sneak across the border...
NY state is offering Illegal aliens $15,600 to locate in that shithole state...
The US is trying to commit suicide...
Canada is looking good to me nowadays.

Well, I had someone at the dyno shop (which sells the cam I am looking at). This person knows them well and have a mutual trust.
They are seeing real test numbers with that cam that show 25hp gains near idle, approximately 90hp at 4000 RPM and 100 ft/lbs in the 6.0L. Apparently those engines respond very well to cam changes.

My 231/234 .629" .615" 111* may be on par at 7000 RPM

Holdeners dyno testing of BTR truck cams shows a 31 horsepower gain from a factory LQ4 cam to a BTR Stage 1 camshaft in a 6.0L engine. The BTR Stage 1 tested is a larger camshaft than the one you have posted.
