Default Hot Rod Cams..do they work with S/C

I was thinking of getting the HotRod cams...but was also wondering..if I did ever want to S/C it..are these cams ok to use with a M90 or would I have to swap them out?

it really boils down to your goals.

for me, having 450-500rwhp with the sound and feel of cams,
is enough. if you want 100% efficiency along with peak hp,
stick with the stock cams.

I do want the sound..but then I dont know if I would ever get the S/C since 5grand is alot for it..So it could be years before I do that..I was planning on doing cams in the spring when i bring the car back out.

Yes you can use them with a SC though it will not give you the max
Hp efficiancy over a blower type cam.

But they will still be awesome.
I love my Hot Rods.

Maybe look at Brenspeed's Supercharger cams...specifically the Detroit Rocker one's if you want the badass sound.
