Default Cartek 3x Cam with Nitrous

Hey guys,
I am thinking about doing this cam. I am going to spray the 100shot on top of this too. Do you think this is a good combo. I want the car to be fast on motor and work well with the n20.

Thanks Rob. Nitrous isnt the MAIN perference. Id just like a fast n/a car too. Id like to make 420+ cam only.
I rarely use the nitrous. Still on my 2nd bottle since install. Needs to be filled up though.

I want something that works AWESOME n/a and good on the juice.

Crazy... talk to Dave.. cause you will most liekly have to run a NOS tune which when not on the bottle.. will I believe run a slower ET due to the tune.. SO you have to ask your self.. which is more. pratical for what you plan on using the car for... I held off on the NOS and went with all motor work.. just my .02

I spoke to you once on the phone. Im a friend of Anthony (doing 441ci motor zo6 vert). I will call you again. But most importantly I am going to try to come by your shop soon and talk to you in person.
