Arrow how about the tsp magic stick?

Ok guys here we go with the cam question.Right now i have the mods in my sig, and notice the cam that is in there . I have a comp cams 218/220 cam. I think its time i stepped up the cam . Looking for more power and better track times. So i am thinking about the tsp magic stick to go with my afr 205's. What does everyone think about that choice. By the way all new suspension pieces are going on this weekend. Trying to get those 60 ft times down. Anyways i dont think i got that good of a tune with my old cam. Was only getting 12.75 at 106 before . And i know those heads and full exhaust and a 3500 stall should be better than that. So i think i am going with the magic stick(and hopefully get a lot better tune from wheel 2 wheel than i did last time. And hopefull get my 1/4 times down quite a bit. Any suggestions and or commented welcome and appreciated .

I don't know about the specs on those AFRs, but more than likley you'll have to fly cut your pistons.

PM Jason from TSP. They used to sell AFR and he could give you a deffinate answer. From what I've been told, only a stock valve non milled head will clear. So I would say that you would deffinatly have to fly cut.

So long as your AFR 205's aren't milled more than .010", you'll be able to run our MS3 camshaft without cutting your pistons. We have quite a few customers running the setup with no problems.

Feel free to give me a call or e-mail me at trevor@texas-speed.com if you have any other questions or concerns.
