who grinds mtis cams ?those specs sounds like it would be fairly easy on your springs so they should last awhile.txz28=decisions,decisions.it took me a few days to decide to get the torquer v2 but i figured with the compression i had i could give up alittle torque to pick back up some lost hp.there is so many camshafts that will work great these days it's hard to pick a clear-cut favorite.

That was designed as a stroker grind.
