I think comp may have a line of marine cams but figured I'd ask to see what you guys have run with success....
thanks

If you don't have good stainless valves at a minimum, cam is going to be the least of your worries. Blowers introduce alot more heat to the exhaust valve. Once it gets really warm, it'll start to tulip- and then you're screwed.
