Updating from Torquer 2 on rebuild, what new options out?? Haven't looked at the world of cams since I got my torquer 2 installed way way back when. Since my engine is getting rebuilt, curious what evolution in technology has provided in improvements in hp/tq over the torquer 2?
Going with stock cubes, all new pistons and rings, etp 315 heads and all supporting mods including fast 90/90. Current setup netted around 470hp/400tq on a dynojet.
Want a wilder sounding cam, improvement in hp/tq of course through the whole power band, not just at the upper rpms levels. Still need some control for driving around the shopping carts in the parking lots without feeling like I'm on the back of a bull.
Shop doing my work wants to do a custom grind which is perfectly fine, but looking for some suggestions for off the shelf cuts as a comparison for specs, or if anyone has suggestions as to what specs to look at that would be great!
brief search is showing tick, futral, and texas are still the go to guys for off the shelf grinds.
Thanks all!

Here's what I'd suggest looking at.

Most important part is if the tick cams will improve hp/tq #'s over the torquer 2.
