ok unless you want a simple cam job to turn into a monster $1800+ job (like mine did) get the stage ones, you can use stock valve springs and just swap cams, i also have the stageones, but i opted to do my valve springs as well, the stage ones are perfect for a stock short block, you will hear and feel such a difference over stock, i couldnt be happier with mine, stage 2s you NEED to swap springs, besides you wont get the full power from the 2s, they make power over what the stock short block can rev, trust me i did my homework and talked to many people, you will see better and more practical gains from the stage ones then the 2s, MVR up there ^ was talking about my cams by the way

oh yeah, yes you will need a dyno tune for it to run right, find a shop that uses the SCT software, (most do) and have then dyno tune it, then you will REALLY feel a seat of your pants difference, its not a option, DO IT, the tune will run you about 300-350..400 on the high side (yes im talking about the stage ones)

Any considerable power increasing mod will require a tune. Its just something you have to do
