Futral F13 or Torquer 2? Futral cam specs are 230/232, .595/.585, on 112 LSA
Torquer 2 specs are 232/234, .595/.598 on a 112 lsa.
The torquer 2 powerband states 1800-6400 RPM while the F13 is 2500-6800 RPMs.
Is there really that much of a difference in the power band? I was leaning towards the torquer 2 as Ive heard nothing but positive things about it but Ive also heard nice numbers from the F13.

The F13 powerband is normally lower than is stated on the site. Most people seem to make peak power around 6500-6600 with the F13. It is a great cam. When I took the plunge I went slightly bigger with the F14, and was very please with my choice. Any Futral cams are good.

Those powerbands aren't even comparable from one manufacturer to the next. I mean, who decides where the powerband starts? I say it starts at 0rpm.
The Futral cams are great grinds. I think they're Cam Motion lobes, aren't they?

Ive had both cams, but installed heads when I went to the torquer2. I did like my f13, but had was "forced" to upgrade cams. If youve done your research you know what this means.
The powerband is subjective. In the end, youll be hard pressed to tell the two cams apart. If I was going to do it over, Id probably go even bigger than the T2, but it is a nice starter cam.

That sounds killer. What numbers did you put down?
