Default what cams to get???

Hey guys. I am looking for input on some cams for my setup.

83mm gsr/ls bottom end 10:1 compression
1mm over intake valves w/supertech valvetrain
Head is ported and polished type r head
Running a BWs372 with 1.10 ar turbine

My question is what cam can I run??? Please explain your choice of cams as well. Thanks

i am using IPG V1 cams, i dont know how they fare against the s2p1 cams but look on evans site to see a comparo of the s2p1 cams against the ctr cams.

since you are 1mm over on 1 valve and not both i think you will be ok. i myself am .5mm over on both mine with the IPG V1s.

To the OP. I like the Pro1s. But the IPGs make great power as well. I think you will be happy with either one.
