Default XE-R vs. Cammotion Lobes

Alright been looking a lot at the TSP and Futral lobes and wanted to get some feed back on how they compare since they both use different kind of lobes. I know the comp is a little more aggressive lobe compared to the futral lobe, but basicly wanted to know easactly how that will relate to the real world. (driving around town, power, etc.)

I was looking at the torquer or the F14 cam, and since they are baslcy the same at .50 inch i didnt now how they would relate.

Thanks a lot.
Justin

Like you said XE-R is a bit of a faster ramp rate (49)
While Cam motion is (50 and 51), while they look similar at .050, they differ at .200/.400
Bottom line with a good tune they are both in the same power range

so basicly from what i'm hearing the comp is a little more aggressive(lope harder, etc). But when it comes to power the difference is going to be very slim. So should i just go with the cheaper one, and put more money into the tune.

Bingo. The fast ramp rates are not going to determine your lope. Just how fast your valves open/shut.

I've had great results with the Futral cam, so that gets my vote.
