Streetable?

Put more lift in it.

I'm running the #19, love it so far but like mentioned it's specically for the 94/95s, otherwise you might as well go with the #18.

ORIGINAL: golden_eye

The steeda cam doesn't have quite an aggressive duration or lift, but it's supposed to be better than the alphabet cams because it has more lift on the exhaust end, which our cars like, as opposed to being identical for intake and exhaust. The #19 also has a slightly wider lobe separation to help reduce idle problems on 94-95 cars. If you don't have a 94-5 and still want the steeda, you can go with the #18.
The lift is the same, it's the duration that's higher on the exhuast side. It has less intake duration but more exhuast duration than the X.

That's a good idea, they will be able to give you some good advice. Also on the Comp Cams website you can put in your setup and they can recommend a cam they sell to get an idea of a cam that might fit your setup nicely.
