Re: Cam question
Turbo engines run faster (at the track) when you open the exhaust valve sooner. With short intake duration, the engine responds with speed at the track. By opening the exhaust valve sooner with either a tighter lobe-separation angle or long exhaust duration, the engine generally responds better. You will lose scavenge if you open the exhaust valve too late.

Re: Cam question
With what you have that would be a starting cam but if you had the funds I would give a call to your choice of cam guys and let them cut a cam to your app it would be ALOT better than a OTS cam

Re: Cam question
It is better on the duration and lobe separation sides but now the lift is probably too low for your heads depending on how they are finished out.
Your best bet is to get a custom cam. It is the heart of the motor so you can't just get by. The cam is probably more important to a turbo motor than the heads.
