Default C1 cam

I ordered the "hammer" cam yesterday, and luckily its in stock so will be here soon... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> I ordered some 918 springs and hardened pushrods from thunderracing also. I however did NOT get the titanium retainers, is this that big of a deal?

the specs are 222/222 .566/.566 112lsa for those of you who aren't familiar with tha "hammer" <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

also ordered some FLPs to go along with it, wouldn't want this cam to try and lope along through the stock manifolds <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" />

anyone care to guesstimate HP gains from the combo of C1 and FLP longtubes?

right now i have direct-flo lid, smooth bellow, SY3500 verter, cutout, oh ya its an A4. tuning will be in my near future since i can already tell parking and idling will be a b*tch without it, lol

Not a C1 but close. I picked up 46 hp after tuning with a 222/222 .563/.563 112 Comp cam. I am still using the stock retainers.
