RE: cammed the stang
well, dude... My plans are to build a forged motor ready for a blower, so in theory stage 2s would work... but I want a stable idle and don't feel the need to rev to 7 grand, so yeah stage 1 blower cams....

RE: cammed the stang
Care to do a write up on the install? I'd love to get cams, but don't want to pay the price for install. I've been quoted $1800 before.
I'm thinking about going with the VT Stage 2 Blower Cams with the Comp Valve springs from vt engines.
I've had the valve covers off before because I installed new ones and I installed the SC.
