Yeah, well - I hope I'll agree w/ you guys... I just ordered mine today. How would you compare the rev ranges? Idling? SOTP power?

The specs on mine are Texas Speed and Performance 224/224/, .581"/.581", 114 LSA and I love it.
You will need headers to take advantage of the cam. You should definately notice a difference if you get a cam AND headers. A cam by its self won't give you much of a gain.

I gotta admit You are WAY wrong! After only my cam install the car pulled so damn harder i seriously freaked out. After the test drive i was like... wait a minute!.. the new rev limit is at 6700rpms not 6200!

I made a jump from 314.7rwhp to 360rwhp with just a cam, tuning, and a pulley. That was a 46rwhp difference that would round up to 53hp on the motor. Trust me you'll feel the difference. But ofcourse going from the way it is now to headers AND a cam would feel even better! Just make sure you pretend like nothing was done to the car during the cam install. Dont be expecting any power just so you can honestly feel the before vs. after power difference. Just pretend like you did an oil change and your ready to go for a ride. Make sure you pm me after that and tell me what you thought about it.

Man I sure miss how happy i was that day. Im sure nitro dave remembers how happy i was too! It sucks that I am so used to it now! maybe I should try driving a stock fbody and compare

I'd would have thought it would peak at about 6600 like you said on a 114. That's why i want a 110 so it peaks ealier.
