If you're adding an S/C you should get the blower cams. It depends on how "later" you're doing that. If it's going to be like a next year thing or something, you can always just get the reg cams now, then change to the blower cam setup before doing the blower.

If I were in your boat I'd go ahead and get the blower cams right now. You'll still make power with them in NA form but once you get your blower you'll have no problem getting to 400 horseponies. Plus cams and the install aren't cheap. Just think of the money you'll save.

this is a question I will need to know. I want to s/c my car after i rebuild it, but it wont be right away.

so blower cams will give you some decent gains N/A but they really shine with the boost right


what is the difference... I know with N/A cams, the bigger you go the more lift, duration and overlap you have.

With a blower cam, is it just a steep intake stroke with a slightly increased exhaust stroke?

blower cams will add plenty of power na so its ok to use them now...when you get the blower they will really shine.
