RE: motor build

FI Roller? Get the same cam you would for the turbo setup so you don't have to change it later. With that low compression, it won't be great with any performance oriented cam. Keep the duration up to help the pistons pull the mixture a little more into the cylinder. I wouldn't go less than 230* @ .050. 0.52x lift would be decent.

How much boost you planning on? 12-14psi or so?
