Default Street sweeper HT VS XER281HR

I have the MTI stealth 2 cam 224/220 .581/.581 116
its a good daily driving cam but its a poor top end cam
I'm looking for new cam which will give me a huge power in the top end 110+ MPH for roll racing
I'm thinking of:
Street sweeper HT 228/232 .612/.600 111
Comp XER 281HR 232/234 .595/.598 112

which will give me much power and will be more streetable with a good idle ?

I like Ed's cam a little better. Second one is same as TSP Torquer v2 so it should be easy to search.

the SS-HT is a mean cam. love eds grinds. that thing rips torque off about 2500 and carries almost flat to 6000. I am about to pull out an x-er and put in the HT myself.

When i get a cam i'll probably go with a custom cam identical to yours or the SS-HT cam. I like to have power under the curve plus up top power.

Can't go wrong with FTI. Ed is one of the best cam guys around, even if he doesn't pay sponsorship on LS1Tech. My vote is for the SS-HT.

By definition, that's not a custom cam. Just never understood why people still call it (or any other grind that's replicated frequently) a custom cam, when it's cut all the time.

I was refering to SOMbitch's cam as the custom cam i want. If i dont get it i may get the SS-HT cam. I was planning on maybe going with ya'lls new PRC 215's when i do my cam as well.

Well I have the Torquer2, TSP's equivalent to the XER 281HR in my daily driver. No problems with it at all. Made 400/370 with the shitty 853 heads and went the times in my signature. I don't have one complaint about the cam. Drove the car to North Carolina averaging 76-80 mph through the mountains and averaged 25 mpg with it as well.
