On americanmuscle.com it wants you to get adjustable cam gears but at 289 bucks is it needed as well... plus springs and retainers if getting stage 2's? cams are like a thousand dollar job it looks like

Nah, all you really need is this:

Just get the matched cam gears, and do whatever cams you decide. This way you won't have to degree them. Just measure the specs and check your ptv clearence.
I would stay away from the stage 2's, because ptv contact is possible if they're installed at the advertised specs.

comp stag 2 degreed will only leave u with .005 thousandths clearance. u need at least .020 to b safe from ptv contact. its not the lift that u need to worry about with contact it is the duration. the trick flow stg1 cams are badass and they will clear if degreed and are almost identical to the comp stg1 cams tht i have,and theyre about $150 less too. most people dont kno and always say the stg2 comp cams fit fine but the people tht dont have problems most likely have stock cam gears tht came a lil bit retarded or they are tapping real light at high rpm's and thy cant tell.until thy take the heads apart
