Nitrous cams leave a little on the table for N/A applications, but 93Hatch ran his 347 n/a with a nitrous cam in it. Nitrous cams show their ability when you spray though. You want to watch your LSA when you pick a cam for nitrous to pull double duty. I chose the TrickFlow Stage 2 for mine since it does well with nitrous too, just not quite as good as it could be. My combo consists of Stage 2 cam, Track intake with TFX nitrous plate kit, and TF 185cnc heads. My heads outflow the intake, but it's what I had already and the spray bar plate is for it, so where I'll lack in N/A at higher RPM will more than make up for it when I'm spraying. Haven't run this combo yet, so I can't tell ya how good it is quite yet.

With your heads, I'd go with the Trick Flow R, Holley Sysetmax, or Edelbrock RPM 2 intake. Off the shelf cam, either the Comp XE274HR or Trick Flow Stage 2 cam would be a excellent choice. Comp also makes a number of nitrous cams also.

wouldnt i makeout alot better with a custom grind ? and those trickflow intakes look good but are twice as expensive to have machined.

You have the 205's on your DD and only bought 190's for your track car? I'd swap heads between the two. IMHO
