^ there have been some people posting recently about eyelash problems w/ the MS4. Cams that big, you should check the PTV clearance. Not bashing TSP, but I've heard that the cam grind #'s have been somewhat inconsistant. a 110 lope was dialed in to be around 109 when deggreed in the car. -Just check the clearance before you fire it up.

The MS4 is a big peak #'s cam. My buddy has it in his 02 SS and it's a monster up top. That thing screams. He pulled on a blown and sprayed 4.6 Stang w/ it. He should be at or around 550 fwhp w/ the EWP, Full exh, UDP's and P+P'd TB w/ a good tune from TSP. He actually gets better gas mileage than I do, FWIW..

That cam should net you 60-70 hp over the stock LS2 power w/ a good tune.

If all else fails a 7.35 Pushrod could do the trick, for peace of mind
