I run a ZZ4 cam it is somewhat close to original cam...but alot more agressive on the ramps/ exhuast lifts per duration. I can highly recommend it. It hurt mileage very little.

Consider nitrous.

Sticky tires will get u there too but the rearend can go kablooom.....
You can retain mileage if you work traction. meaning rearend+3.50 gears+sticky tires.

consider nitrous it can come on after the launch like ballbusters.

STUPID voters, Bush, and gas prices happen'd.
I'd love to run NA and hear that camshaft going. But who could stop a gargantuan snowball of imbeciles from voting based on moral fiber and twang.

Wish I could say someday but there's no end in sight. Hence low durations+N20.
