oh Louie wasn't yelling, he just means that
there are lots of threads, where we've
talked about them in depth.

basically people love them, they give you
that lope and remind you of better days

That's my concern.

I'm interested in cams, but I don't have LT headers and I don't want to drop $700 for a cam and only get 10hp or so... I want to get at least 20rwhp with the cam.
