The 422 would work fine. Many other have used it with good success. You could get a custom cam designed for a turbo motor from Comp. For the same price as they charge for a 422. You can call and talk to one of there engineers and they can help you. They can set you up with the correct springs,retainer,etc.

I have a good friend that's works at comp cams. I asked about a 422 and he said they had a 252/.425 lift with a 110 lobe separation. Didn't know if that was the same or not.
