Default Best Roller Cam for a 1000hp Blower set up?? With good idle??

Hello guys... I have a gen 4 582ci blower engine that I have taken down for rebuild. Changing from flat tappet to full roller and need some direction on what works best.

I'd like to maintain some sort of idle for maneuvering around the docks if possible. Putting out 5lbs of boost. 10-71 blowers.

Mainly looking for the cam, hydro roller lifters, springs, retainers, etc... basically, the entire kit.

Thanks guys for the help!!

Default cams

i had a 509 with a blower i used cammotion they were able to choose the best cam for my engine .They also have other parts you need .I had scorpian rockers and had to buy larger valve covers from teague . they didn't work well and i got comp cam magnum rockers.Call them and they can come up with the right specs make sure you inform them its for a boat for the correct separation

I'll second the 651 cam as a good option

Give Bob Madara a call at Marine Kinetics. He is a great guy to work with. He will make sure you have the right combination for your application.
