Im not far behind WILWAXU, going to track tomorrow for first time since X1, TEA1.5s, and some tuning at MTI. I wont go tens but it wont be far off, got new slicks with no passes on them, dont know how thats going to end up. I think that cam is one of the best out there thats not monster size. My wife drives this set up everyday, which includes taking my son to and from school. I never had it like that when I was 8.

Cool

I love this cam! Ordered it a while back with a set of stage 2R heads. Put out 416x404 on a load bearing dyno. I wouldn't recommend this cam w/o a good set of heads with some good exhaust ports though.

Wouldn't say it's too streetable w/o a good tune. But streetability was never an issue for me.

Got a video of the dyno, awesome sound; pm me if you would like to see it.

Love it. The lope is killer, its very streetable with tuning. I've got stock heads with very few bolt-ons (see sig), and its pushing about 390 rwhp.

My best times at the track are a very traction limited 12.38 @ 115.5 or so. Low end is comparable to stock IMO, at least from a SOTP feel. But it pulls hard from 3,500 to my rev limited 6,600.

With a couple more bolt-ons and traction, its an easy 400+ rwhp and 11s.
