Here's a lil action with the smaller cams on cold ET Streets and babying it. You can the bigger cams really start to pull in the 3500+ rpms. Man all this talk is making me want a Silver Bucket II

I have the hitechs and they have a good lope to them and make great power. Just get them degree'd.

I ordered a forged rotating assembly and the 44cc TFS heads so ill have vids posted up when she gets done.

But if i had to pick id do the MHS or the CMS. They seem a lil bit safer.

If you don't degree any of the cams listed above you will either lose power because they came retarded or you will be searching for a new rotating assembly like mustangmancp because they were too advanced.

It costs more money because it is an very involved process. If you don't degree the cams you get that will be the dumbest thing you could do for yourself.

Or just buy the cam gears from nick and the cams from him or send him yours and he'll degree them...i think thats what he does anyways. If you buy heads from him too, he'll install the cams and then all you have to do is take off your heads and bolt on the package he sends you and reattach all timing hardware and go.

I would go with Hitech stage 2 b/c (Eric 2v gt) on modular forum went 12.20 n/a and with a 150 shot went 11.45. However, i would have them degreed, and have your intake valves modified. The 4.6 PI motors with stock pistons has severe intake valve to piston clearance problems.

this vid is of a different car, but same cams
