Hey guys can you help me out with these cams? I don't really know what the letters mean.

What do you think is the best cam for me. I want somthing with a lopy idle but i don't necessarily want new springs cuz thats another 200 dollars lol. I was lookin at the XE274H?

But i know you guys probably get this all the time...but if you could help thatd be nice.

If your dead set on not getting valve springs, and your a conservative driver who doesn't see redline every time you take your car out, you could go with Hitech stage II's they still have a lot of lope and claim you dont need vavlesprings unless your are spending a prolonged amount of time at higher rpms.

there is a guy on youtube with bolt ons, a built rear, slicks and hi tech stage 2 and runs 12.1 in the 1/4

i talked to him on aim, he got new valve springs and shifts at like 6500 rpms though

I saw the video for that the car, it launches pretty hard and had some big sticky tires. im guessing that helped alot

no, a hard launch on slicks doesn't help at all.

Of course the fact the car weighs 3100# with the driver has nothing to do with it either. It's all in those cams. lol

^ Yeah, I don't know what I was thinking, a hard launch sticky tires an a light curb weight helping down the 1/4 mile.

Anyways here's the link to the video, its kinda long so you could skip the intro.

You're excused since you can't drive in a straight line.
