I have to say there is no BEST cam. its all in what you are looking for. I mean you can get something that will give you low end and good mid range or you can have something that does not come alive till about 3800 then pulls to the high end of 6 grand. So what do you want out of a cam.

Apparently it is new to you. Have you looked at the panel on the back? No "e" in Camaro bro!
