Alright if i am not mistaking, the cams it comes with is the same as stage 1, .510x.530, yet this cam is a different duration than a stock cam. Like all cams they all ways add more power to a ported head than a stock head. I have read in MM@FF where they added a cam to stock head recieved 27rwhp, and then added it to a ported head and gained 39rwhp, remember that those that cam will help those ported heads head bring in that air a lot better than stock heads, also a valve train upgrade of springs and valves can also gain power of up to 15hp, i believe this was in the september 2002 issue of MM&FF, I will go look for it. So in a sense lets say the porting adds 25rwhp to the stock heads which claim around 60 then we get to 85, the cam helps the affect of air flow better so add anywhere from 10 to 15, now we are at 100 if the valve train adds 5, then we are at 105, pretty close to 110 could be a little more or a little less, hey you can go buy it try it out and let us all know the true numbers lol

Yea I understand that but the cams arent actually different cams are they? Just the porting and other will help make the cams more effective.

Yes stage 1&2 are the same. The porting definetly helps the cam become more effective. Does anyone know if the 96-98 engine have a flat top piston or a dished piston? i have read on a few sites that they are flat top, then i have also read that they are 11cc, if anyone knows this answer for shore it would be appreciated,.
