What would be the difference between these two cams?
I'm looking at MTI's stealth and B1 cams

stealth = 220/220 .581/.581 115 LSA
B1 = 221/221 .558/.558 114 LSA

The B1 would probably lope a little more but that is fine. Seems like the B1 would be a little safer on the vavle train. Jayson said the stealth works well with the stock converter. Does the B1? or does it like a converter?

This would be for a A4 C5
other parts would be Stage1 heads, headers, exhaust, LS6 intake, Blackwing, pulley (maybe not a pully)

The stealth might have like 1-2 percent more area under the curve but will be harder on the valve springs.

Might also want to consider a TR220 on a 114LSA fast ramps like the stealth but less lift.

I'm the resident TR220 supporter.. so I'll put my vote there.
