Lumpy Cam
does anyone have a audio or audio video clip of a stock 3.8l with the lumpy cam, or the extream cam from compcams? same durration but compcams is cheaper, so i get the feeling thats what im going with, but I want to see what itl sound like while its stock.
also, my 96 3.8l has 116,000 miles on it... itl be fine with the new cam as long as I get new valve springs right?

you know....
the pre 99 head flow isn't really that great, you will get the sound from the cam not the performance.
