I don't think you will get to many responses here with people who have had experience with that cam. If you are buying it used for a good price then I say go for it. If you are looking at buying a new cam try a search in here or the Dyno forum section and you will find ALOT of results for various cams. I think the reason is that other sponsors are extremely active on this board and post results of the latest cam and generally have a better following b/c of that.

I would go bigger if I were you. Do not go through the hassel of a cam install and not get exactly what you want.

Thanks bud...nice to be appreciated....that cam on today's stock heads or Ported Heads is really a waste of money. I went 218/224...w/in 2 weeks had MTI 230/227 cam in there..no drivability issuses at all if you have a proper tuner.

Can't say enough about Jayson over at MTI....he sqweezed everything out of that car...stock ls1 intake, mac mids, mac y-pipe, and corsa catback and still got zero knock retard on 93 octane. To Jayson and to the other ****** that called it an excellent insight. goooons....

oh...and going from just the cams i picked up almost 50rwhp....
