Decided to go Turbo, will these cams be ok?
First of I have a 2007 nnbs vmax with the L76 6.0 with pc long tubes, 4l70 with transgo and vette servo, 3.73 gears, and 305/55's(measure a hair over 32")
I've recently been looking at going turbo(t70) and running 8-10psi. I had a cam picked out. Its a lunati voodoo 217/223 .549/.549 113 lsa but since I've decided to go turbo I've been doing a little research on whether that am would do ok in a FI application and can't find anything solid. So I started looking around at other setups and come across'd a 214/230 .601/.575 117 lsa cheatr cam and comp 219/227 .607/.614 112 lsa.
I would like to stick with the stock converter(at least for a while), have good low end torque, for it to have a decent lope, and get to around 550rwhp. Will any of these cams fit the bill or what would you suggest? I'm looking to cam sometime within the next couple months and turbo sometime this year, so it will be driven without FI for a while.. I'll admit even tho I've read threads, builds,and researched a **** load about cams and FI I'm still a bit confused on them. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

No I don't have the voodoo cam. I haven't bought a cam yet, just gathering vvt and dod delete parts before I buy a cam. I had thought about doing a custom grind but I don't have any idea what to ask for or anything besides what I've read about having Pat G spec one for me which is always a possibility just wanted to get some opinions. I found all sorts of threads about 4.8's and 5.3's but a small number of 6.0's most to almost all going with a 3000+ stall

I think you would be happy with the Isky Triple 12.. Its proven and runs great.
This should be enough proof.

I have a similar setup (ecsb, 3.73's, same tire size, but a 5.3) and my cam's specs are 220/220 .581/.581 112LSA w/ XER lobes. This is in no way the ideal cam for boost, but I do recommend something smaller to help get the big tires moving out of boost for everyday driving. Also you might consider a t76 turbo.

I have eye balled that Triple 12 a little bit haha just couldn't find any specs or anything else on it besides a few guys running it lol from what I've read it would be great for my set up. I may just go with it.
As far as the T76 I keep going back and forth between it and the T70. Ik I would like to start out at a .69 or .71 a/r housing for fast spool since I'll almost always be on the street but other than that nothing's set it stone. Also what size intercooler are you guys running on the nnbs? I can't find anything solid on a size.

Thanks man. The reason I was looking at cams with a decent split is because I've read so much that the L92 heads love it but After watching all the video's on the Triple 12 I may just go that route.
