Before making my decision.
Hi, Gents. Before pulling the plug, I would like to know if anyone here, has a Supercharger, a blower cam, and Green catted Kook headers, ever experienced exhaust fumes, or gas fumes in the cab of their car, after install.? Depending on the answers, I will decide whether to add a Cam and headers to my, Existing A&A setup. Thanks.

You may think this is not an apples-to-apples comparison, but I think it is valid. I have a C6 ZR1 with long tube headers, catted X-pipe, and recently put in a mild cam. No issues with exhaust fumes in the cab whatsoever. I could see if your idle/low load tune was way rich, it might be an issue, but that would be the case regardless.of the cam and long tubes. So as long as your tune is good... you should be fine. I'm very pleased with my setup. Good luck.

Large cams for NA engines with a lot of overlap allow more of the intake charge to escape into the exhaust; the extent of which depends a lot on the overlap of the cam. Makes big power but allows more unburnt fuel into the exhaust.
As long as the tune is setup correctly, you shouldn't have any problem.
I would recommend Cam Motion for a cam. They have centrifugal specific cams and really know their stuff.
