Best cam kit for FI?

Hey guys, just doing some research on cams, but I wanted your guys' opinion on whats a good cam for the car that will not be too bad for a daily driver and later handle boost well when I can afford a turbo kit lol. Any kits you guys would recommend that won't break the bank, but not be too cheap either?

Also, if this changes anything, I do plan on getting an e85 kit (can someone recommend a good one for this as well lol) and just a car to go fast in a straight line.

This is a good question for those running the new GM direct injection platforms.
It's the combo of the correct HPFP and fuel pump lobe to get you to the end of the road goals wise is the recipe.
The factory pumps and lobe type will support approx 530 or so rwhp, after that it's LT4 pump on stock type lobe should be good into the 600's for rwhp a modified 3 lobe will stretch you to low 700's.
We are working on solutions for more but no data to release as of yet.
You will be able to get away with a little less fuel system on a turbo build vs a supercharged one as the supercharger takes hp to drive.
We have a variety of camshafts for what your inquiring about.

+1 for Livernois! Can't wait to get our Powerstorm hi-lift cam installed, along with our ProCharger setup.

The cam is the cheapest part of the build it is the supporting equipment and labor involved to change it out that is the big nut.

I offer a full line of cams for the LT-1 to meet your goals feel free to give me a call.

We recommend EFI Flex fuel kits we have plenty in stock.

We also offer FREE custom tuning support for parts purchase from JRE when you purchase a tuning solution from us like SCT or HPtuners.
