Depends on what you can handle. As long as you know its a HUGE cam and you get a good tune youll be alright. I street mine every day and I love it. This is also in a stalled auto with a spool. Just do it and dont look back.

its a big cam, how many miles do you put on your car a year? i hope you're planning on getting a goooood tune, if you've got a manual i hope you are plannin on a stage 3-4 clutch...but you CAN drive it.
hear good stuff about this cam okay.your car will lope real hard.youll have a grin on your face when someone pulls right next to you cause thier wondering what you got in there.actually had someone tell me if my car was missing.better have a good tune.knew it was gonna sound like this.as far as daily drive it.thats up to you.I wouldnt.be prepare to change springs more often.both cars not a daily driver.good luck.put it in.the cam.
i have this cam but it is not for everyone. as for driveability as long as you have a good tune and proper gear ans such it is fine as far as im concerned. gas mileage will suck but im sure you know that. it is a great cam but i wouldnt go with it if you put alot of miles on the car. i drive mine daily but i never have to drive far but it drives good with a tune
We installed 2 of them last year.The idle sounds mean.The customer's were happy with them for a few months then just got sick of them.They had minor drivability issue's under 1800rpm no matter how the tune was.We ended up putting in smaller Cams,got better drivabilty/gas mileage/midrange power with lope still.

hmmm,, thats a variety of feedback, and thats what i tend to read on these things good things and some not so good things. just have to do it i guess, i mean i can change out the cam again! anyway, i dont put too many miles on it, i will get a good tune, i do have the gear for it, and i dont have the spec 3 or 4 that the one guy recomended, but i got a spec 2. so sounds like i'm pretty close to enjoying it, atleast for a little while
