Well if those are your only 2 choices, then I'd go with the torquer v2. I had it, and I liked it. My tune wasn't dead on so there was some bucking at low speeds, but other than that it had a lot of mid and top end. Since you have 3.73's already, that should compliment the cam decently. A stall would really make it fly.

The X1 is a old design. I thought about it at one point, plus its a reverse split cam. Nothing wrong with it, but there's better choices. Your best option would be to have a custom cam designed for your setup, or your setup later on down the road. That's where people are making the most power. The offshelf cams aren't always the best.
