.....I will answer this one based on having heard the steeda first hand....the steeda #19 has a very good idle quality infact a member on here previously posted a thread on his and a video of the idle...= nice and smooth

it's not the lope you should be concerned about..it's the idle quality and your factorys ecm 's limited capability to compensate for such a change..or better said over correct for such a change..the steeda #!9 was designed for a sn-95 to be used with a stock sn-95 ecm to give good idle quality without the ned for a custom tune

I've been planning on getting the steeda #19 cam because you have all said such great things about it but I was just listening to exhaust clips on youtube and I heard a few B and E cams that sound amazing in my opinion. I believe the steeda cam out does the abc cams a little bit performance wise but am I going to get the lope I want???

Being that the Steeda and E cam have the same intake duration and the Steeda has 6° more exhaust duration my guess would be the steeda would make more power.

o ok so basicaly your saying that steeda 19 cam and the E cam are very similar and that the steeda will run a bit smooth because of its design

I apologize if what I stated was taken rudely. It was posted that the sound comes from the period of overlap. So I posted the overlap periods between the camshafts to make the mind think a little bit.
The overlap period of the Steeda in question is 53 degrees.
Basic specs...
B303 - 224*/224* 284*/284* - .480"/.480" - .300"/.300" - 112* - 107* ATDC /117* BTDC - 3,300-5,100 RPM
Overlap: 60 degrees.
1.6 Rocker Ratio
Intake Opening: 5* BTDC
Intake Closing: 39* ABDC
Exhaust Opening: 49* BBDC
Exhaust Closing: 5* BTDC
E303 - 220*/220* - 282*/282* - .498"/.498" - .311"/.311" - 110* - 110*/110* - 2,500-5,500 RPM
Overlap: 62 degrees.
1.6 Rocker Ratio
Intake Opening: 0* BTDC
Intake Closing: 40* ABDC
Exhaust Opening: 40* BBDC
Exhaust Closing: 0* BTDC
F303 - 226*/226* - 288*/288* - .512"/.512" - .320"/.320" - 114* - 109*/119* - 2,800-6,000 RPM
Overlap: 60 degrees.
1.6 Rocker Ratio
Intake Opening: 4* BTDC
Intake Closing: 42* ABDC
Exhaust Opening: 52* BBDC
Exhaust Closing: 6* BTDC
Steeda #19 - 220*/226* - 280*/286* - .480"/.480" - 115* - 2,300-6,000 RPM
1.6 Roller Rockers
Intake Opening: 26* BTDC
Intake Closing: 74* ABDC
Exhaust Opening: 79* BBDC
Exhaust Closing: 27* ATDC
Recommended Valve Springs:
110lbs closed/312 lbs open
Either way, a camshaft alone DOES NOT make the sound. Just like everything, the entire package/set-up is going to attribute to particular sounds.

RE: Will I get more lope from a steeda #19 cam or an ABC cam?
youll get the most lope by going online and finding a soundclip and playing it over and over again
i think sound should be the last thing on your mind... i have a cam that outperforms all 4 of the mentioned cams(for my set up) that doesnt sound like it would...
anyway, biggest factor in "lope" is going to be LSA(or over lap), and the intake lobe profile...
i have 218 intake, which isnt big by anymeans and it lopes some
