the TFS stage 1 is a good cam. Might want to get in contact with a cam company that makes a good blower cam though...you dont have to get a custom, but it would make it that much better. But i would say a good off the shelf blower cam would work well.

cam suggestions


i was really considering the b-31 for the blower but i have a set of tfs heads and i thought the stage 1 would work well with them. There are just so many good choices i want a cam that performs and sounds tough.

They are outdated, but still good cams. There are alot of better ones, but they are still good.

Do you plan on upgradeing your heads? Is emissions a concern? What rpm do you want to operate with? vfast is dead on with what he said you dont just grab a cam and call it a day. Many of combos come up short by selecting the wrong cam for the job.

Do yourself a favor and talk with someone from Comp, Anderson motorsport or get a hold of Ed C. at flowtechinduction and pick their brain.
Not to be a dick, but half the peeps who replying dont even run a cam or have a blown car for that matter.

thanks for the heads up but I read his sig...maybe I'll give you some back ground on me I build race engines for a hobby/living.....I have done about 800 or so over the last 25 years....when it comes to an engine I myself want to know everything a cust has and is looking for....nothing worst then spending 3k to 80k in something when to take it out only to be VERY disappointed in the results....IMO
