I don't think you'd see much of a power gain unless you went a lot bigger on the cam and that would be at the sacrifice of driving manners. I have a lot of guys come to me that already have cams that want more power. I normally have to turn them away because in all honestly the gain that they might see would be so small it wouldn't be worth the labor and cost of parts to do the swap. Only if you went much larger would it be even remotely worth it. "Worth it" to some guys is 5-10rwhp, others is 50rwhp. I can tell you that you won't see but 5-15rwhp gain going from the cam you have now to any of my SNS cams.

Thanks for the honesty. I might just wait till I build sonething else. Might go back and have Geoff tweak the idle table. He set it up to sound pretty smooth at idle. Now I wish it hit a lil harder.
