Default which cam to get

I'm planning on getting a cam in the near future. I'm probably going to get the Comp Cams Xtreme Energy. But, would like to hear some opinions. Keeping in mind whether or not I can pass the OBDII emissions testing here in Texas, and what will work well with current mods. Do plan on getting headers in the future.

Thanks in advance

Skipp,

Give Geoff @ Thunder a call... I think their 222/222 cam may pass emissions with proper tuning but I'm not sure. Their custom cams are well know for idle quality, driveability, and awesome big fat torque curves. Geoff will be able to take into consideration your objectives and recommend a good cam for you.

Hope this helps,
Shane
