the only reason to really wait would be so that you dont have to tune twice. If you think that you are gona get heads pretty soon then go ahead and wiat....but if its gonna be a while then throw that cam in there now.

It's always fun to rip into the motor, but waiting means you have to do it twice. Me personally... i couldn't resist and would install it.

If it's only a few months before the heads then I would wait. But any longer then three months and I would start enjoying that cam now
