Cam and valve train???


Doing the PI swap and getting the heads ported. Looking around and it is hard to find a complete set up with NOS cams, valves and valve springs. I was told that the lifters do not have to be changed. Can anone help me out???

hey Boomer, if i'm going blown down the road and want a blower cam right now, would that be detrimental to my car or will it be like any aftermarket cam and still improve lots?

right now, i'm thinking of porting my PI heads and putting in some Comp Springs and VT Stage 2 cams. or maybe your products will convince me otherwise

Blower cams will make less power N/A depending on the combo will be the determining factor. If you know your getting a blower you might just want to buy cams right up front. No point in doing things twice, I have picked up 15 rwhp on a n/a car over a box grind with a set of custom cams. On a blower car I have seen up to 25+ on a blower combo.

well i'm hoping to get a blower in this next year so i'm not sure right now. for you to grind a cam for me, would i have to tell you what i want or give you the exact specs?

also, how do they compare to the "Stages" of the VT cams? idlewise i guess, and can they lobe hard and sound nuts?
