cam swap worth it I have pondered swaping my cams while the cam was down for the winter and was wondering if it was worth it. The car is a 99 ss M6 with Every bolt on including fast 90/90 and 9 inch with 4.11 gear. Heads are stock. It also has a 100 shot on it but hasnt been sprayed yet. It made 403/371 on its curent setup with the 10 bolt. It now has a MS4 cam in it. I was thinking about swapping in a Patrick G custom grind with EPS lobes. Is it worth it? What would I gain from doing so? Its not a ton of work and not really much money as I already have the ms4 sold if I do it. Easy it even worth doing?
