How many of you are running Patriot cams?

>400 HP
low-mid pull
spend at max 1900 for cam and assembled heads (i'd like to shoot for under)
Don't have one yet, but i'm looking at their new cam grind (225/229 .580"/.590" 114 lsa). I'm shootin' for a 112 LSA but we'll see what Patriot can cook up for me. I'm getting a set of their stage 2 5.3 heads as well.
I just want opinions on these cams b/c i can't seem to find any testimonies on them.

Want the 112 b/c i want the power to come on as early as possible and i want a real heavy lope
got no dyno numbers, untuned a running lean, but its very promising, i still do think that i will end up getting a bigger cam, i.m.o 226/226 is just to small
my first impressions of the cam is.. it has awesome low down torque and its realy healthy over the mid range, i can spin my tires in 2nd gear now on my 315's.
its sounds like a huge bitch.. lopes and yeah, just sounds good,
but the problems with it.. is that there are cams there that gives more gain, and gain is what i wanted, i ordered the 232/230 (i think) patriot cam.. but they stopped making it so i got this one,
i will spray 150 on that, and during to the cams good toruge and mid range i think it will be fine,
but still.. i wish i had got in the 23x/23x 6xx.6xx rigth away..
Still tuning at the moment, seems to have the awsome lumpy sound on idle, still tuneable as a daily driver. I know this is only a mild cam, but I think its great. Too much valve overlap and I'll have major trouble passing emmisions. Took it to 5000rpm about 150miles or running things in, and it pulls dam good. I'm usually hard on the gas, but this made me shake and go a little white. I like it.
Dyno numbers should be happening this Saturday.


It just worked when I searched a minute ago. Maybe you will get lucky also.
