i know the install is supposed to be a b*tch, but not having to change the valvesprings should really make it easier.

that's a tough one to answer pascal....

if cams are part of someones overall plan
to reach 350rwhp, then perhaps it's worth
it.

i prefer to think of the hot rods as a sound
mod.

the cams you can get for $700-$800, the
install runs around $400-$500.

i think if we asked those who did it
they would say it wasn't that
difficult, but you do have to pay
attention to detail.
