Default 383 xm276 cam choice and reversion?

Im building twin 383 mpi engines for my 29 scarab. The boat has EMI manifolds and their short style aluminum risers. I'm really liking the looks of the comp cams xm276 but am worried about water reversion. Anyone out their have much luck with similar set-ups or input?

Im not very knowledgeable in cams but that cam has a LSA of 112 so reversion shouldn't be an issue if it is, you could always add a spacer or have taller risers made ...but i don't see an issue its not a very big cam with .500 lift ..hopefully someone else can chime in that has ran that cam before...you could always go with stainless risers and have them dried out then you can run any cam..try this article it may help you more
