Default hotcam vs gm846

I'm between these two cams. Can anyone post some REAL TIME results from either? Does one dyno any higher than the other?

847 is a serious cam and will out perform the hotcam significantly, will not be emissions legal without some serious tuning though. need full intake and exhaust to complement the 847 cam as it is much larger duration wise and lift wise, can be run without either though, just not as well.

His question was about the GM846, not the GM847.
