head work on turbo z6..

Re: head work on turbo z6.. (SOHC Beast)
I would suggest a Crower turbo/supercharger cam.
325. They haven't had any SOHC cams brake and they are ground cores, not regrinds.
The 3 angle would better suit your application IMO.
And that is a good deal on the P&P.
EDIT: Don't forget to have the Exhaust manifold port matched as well.

Re: head work on turbo z6.. (Spade)
well it is just the greddy 15g turbo manifold? all cast iron i believe. but i'll look into it. what about those "exospeed" cams. i think that is the one everybody loves so much on here, or in the crx forum?
i need to try and get cam and cam gear as cheap as possable... and no that doesn't mean i want to buy poor quality. just find a deal?

I would recommend Ferrea retainers/springs and a ZEX camshaft.
I have a built SOHC with that cam and a Greddy trubo kit (13psi) and I run 12.5s W/slicks. I just recently added nitrous and have ran a best 1/8 of a 7.4@97.5mph
The ZEX cam picked me up 4 tenths in the 1/4.
