I guess I am confused now also? Lol. I thought everything was about the v4. I was really looking for some good info on it because I'm on the fence on some of my cam options and there isn't a lot of good v4 info out there regarding power, track times, drive ability, etc.

Nice! Thanks for the info. I was worried about low rpm bucking with that cam but keep hearing it will be good as long as the tune is.. I'm assuming you are running stock heads?

Nice those are definitely good numbers with stock heads. You will need the help with traction for sure lol. I'll keep an eye out for the video. I'm excited to hear it!

I have the V3 (same specs different lobes) and would not get it again, would go with a custom spec cam. I get bucking which can be tuned out but you may have to pull timing to get rid of it which means less power. On the upside it does put down good numbers and it's not a daily so doesn't bother me too much.

Op, sounds like your car is a runner! Looks like you'll be needing stickier tires.

My car came with worn out MT Drag radials on the stock WS-6 wheels. The size was 275/40-17. Besides being worn down to nearly slicks, they looked good on the car. I have a set of Billet Specialties wheels with taller MT Pros in the garage. I put 275/40-17 BFG street tires on my stock wheesl when I got rid of the worn out DR's and they fit and look good.

The 275/40-17 MT's supposedly hooked well after a modest burnout according to the previous owner who said he pulled 1.49 60 foots with SFC's, LCA's, and nothing else. Lord knows there was enough evidence of his burnouts on the bottom of the bumper to make me believe him. I'd consider something in this size for your car as it fits, adds a bit of width, and will still work if you lower the car.

They do not hook for ****...I had 315/35/17 and they did decent with bolt-ons. With H/C/I they were useless from a dig or low roll. Switched to a 275/50/50 MT and they are better....dropped 8 tenths of my 0-60. Going to try a Hoosier next.
