Default Superramed engine with SC

I must be going really crazy. I'm thinking of supercharger and haven't
even received my superram. What can I say, I like to plan ahead.

My question is ( I've allready asked and I know superram is SC friendly)
will SC work with superram and 219 cam or is blower cam necessary?
Does anybody here have this combo?

I'm not sure if many FI guys read this forum so I'll post this here and in
FI section.

I will PM you, email Martin, he had a SC w/SR and it maxed out at @ 600HP, so he changed to the Miniram.

Most supercharger cams have a wider lobe separation, as do most EFI cams. I do not know the specs of the 219 although I imagine that it will work fine on your car if you ever SC it.

LPE/Accel has a blower grind that was tested on a SR. I believe it is a 74220 with 215/220 duration and around 560 lift. LPEs 350 test engine made over 625hp on their engine dyno with 8 PSI of boost.

That sounds like something interesting. I could keep the valvetrain because it's similar cam to 219 ( same lift ).

The exact lift on that cam with 1.6 rockers is .533/.544. So you could keep what you have for the 219.

I that you'd be fine with the 219, but I'd email Greg Carroll at BlowerWorks (greg@blowerworks.net) and ask him.
