You can cam any of the motors to do the same thing as a vhr, but that isn't the way they come. to really make use of a built engine the guy is going to need a T trim or v7/v4 whichever fits easier. If they get 600hp out of the modified v3 they could get 700 or 800 out of a v7

Oh and a turbo reference doesn't translate over to superchargers all that well. A turbo is much more tolerant of excessive overlap than a supercharger is.
Not sure exactly how much overlap the VHR has since i have never seen the cam spec card nor do I claim know exactly how the VVEL black magic affects the cam for that matter i'm not even sure if anyone knows for sure.

I didn't make any reference to turbos. A SC is more like an NA compared to Turbo and NA, when talking about cam profiling. The first you worry about blow thru where as the latter you worry about exhaust gas making its way back into the engine.

Sorry for the off topic conversation.
