Default Futral F14 or MS4?

I'm looking to buy a good cam soon. I've been looking a Futral Motorsports and Texas Speed. Opinions?

Well I have a FAST LS6 intake with a 90 mm throttle body and TSP longtubes. I plan on ordering TSP 5.3 stage 2.5 heads when I order my cam.

Why do you say those cams are too big?

Either cam will do....it just depends on how much power you want out of it. I hav eth f14 and love it. Drivbility with a good tuner is not a problem. I have a friend with a ms3 in his f-body (which is bigger then my f14) and it also drives perfect. If you want to make a little more power then go with them ms4 but i also am all over 400hp with my f14...its hard to tell in my dyno graph because of a spike at the end that sent me to 403hp but i am definately in the high 390s if not 400. I would recommend either of them. Just for kicks and giggles heres a video of my f14 idle and rev

I loved my F13 when i was stock cubes, and if i ever was stock cubed again that would be the cam i'd go with. IMO, its the perfect mix of power/drive ability. I knew the previous owner of my car, and he switched the F13 to an F14 and made 3 more HP cam only...wasn't satisfied and went back to the F13 and bought a set of 5.3 heads. It stayed that way until it spun a bearing when i owned it, but it made 435rw/408rw, with the F13/5.3's/LT's/M6.
