but... that one looks so... respectable.

if it's better than stock by much at all they very well might actually gain something. Which isn't good (atleast in this thread).

This thread is a fail...pretty messed up. If you did this to me if I was naive about cars, I would destroy you.

I think at this point I would step up to the "Full Race Cam". Perhaps even the, often rumored..................but rarely spoken of........................ 1 and a quarter race cam. That is all. Eric L

What you are asking for sounds reminiscent of an old sbc with shitty heads and a cam that is too big. Starts out boggy, then right when the cam starts making power the heads fail to flow enough shortly after. Unfortunately there are no shitty heads available for the genIII/ gen IV engine lol.
