Turbo cam in NA motor?
I used the search button, my question didn't come up.
I know a NA cam can be used in a stock NA motor. I've also heard of people running a turbo cam in a NA motor.
The question is, is there anything special that needs to be done to make (for instance) a stage 1 turbo cam work in a NA motor? Aside from the obvious stuff like gaskets, bolts, etc.. I know a tune is recommended as well.
I'm asking this now because I'm putting a lot of thought into the 3500 swap, and may just do that instead of the top swap, as it isn't much more expensive thru MMS. I figured a turbo cam will let in even more air than a NA cam, and since the lx9 is stronger than the la1, it could handle the extra air.
