Default STS & T-Rex cam

i was thinking about this the other day, when thinking about the power that the STS kit comes in, and the power band of the T-Rex cam are about the same around 3-3500rpm your at full boost and with the T-Rex your in the powerband at about the same rpms. so i was wondering what you all thought about a combo like this, or do you think the T-Rex lobe separation would bleed off to much boost for a combonation like this to work. just throwing something out there. or maybe possibly having a T-Rex hybrid with similar duration and lift, but a higher lobe separation.

that wouldnt work well at all.

good plan, but if you're going to get a custom cam ground, call up a sponsor and ask for their advice on the best cam for your application, also- with the huge engine your running, you could very easily run a bigger cam.
