What's your reason to swap them? The "new" cam is only down a degree in duration and a hair less lift on both sides, so there is very little difference in spec.

You looking for more power on the top end, or more down below? How do you use it? Do you like how it runs right now? Or does it "need help" somewhere in the power curved?

Aren't you on another thread where it is suggested the cam you have is already too big for your present setup?
