Well I finally got all the machine work, pistons, crank, and rods. Its time to choose a cam. I dont really know too much about cam specs and thats why I need your help.

This is what it has/will have:
Scat 9000 Crank
Forged lightweight rods
Forged low comp pistons
Victor Jr Heads
Rockers - need help also
TFS 351w intake
75mm TB -tell me if size is ok
Nitrous-then switch to supercharger or maybe a combo

I want the cam to be aggressive, but not too much. I would also like to hear the sound of the cam idling.

What RR and Cam combination will be good? I plan on making 500+ rwhp?
The nitrous at first will be around a 150-175 shot, then blown I want about 12-16 lbs maybe more LOL!!

Engine Might have to get a Dart block but don't want to and if I do, then 363 instead of 331. Thoughts on what I've already bought so far.......
