Default TSP "MS3" or HPE "S" cam?

I was looking at some dyno graphs the other night while trying to decide between the 2 cams. It looks to me like the Magic Stick makes a little bit more power up top and under the curve but i know graphs can be decieving. Would like Chuck or someone from TexasSpeed to chime in please.

Yeah very nice from cam auto. My biggest thing is the undercurve power. The graph on HPEs site just looked kinda "peeky" compared to the graph on TSPs site.

Both cams are almost identical, we used to mostly sell the S cam on a 115 LSA, but now sell it on a 113 which gives you a little more midrange torque, without loosing any top end power...

The graph peak differences can be something like header brand, or exhaust setup...as the camshafts are very similiar now that the "S" cam is on a 113lsa too.
