get ones, i havevt stage oneswith stock heads, once you get tuned you will thank me, you wont loose any sack down low and it only gets better the high up you go, stage 2s are doable on stock heads but youwont seethe benefits till damn near redline, trust, people will fight me day and night over it, but IMO get the stage ones

I called VT and they told me on a stock motor get stage 1's. They said "do not get stage 2 cams unless you have aftermarket head work" Thats straight from the horses mouth.

personally, If i were ever to do cams, I would do it partially for the lope, butI wouldn't mind the extra power, so I would just wait untilI could do some headwork, and get the stage II's. but thats just me...

Yeah, what they said above, stage 1s. You need head work, and a new intake manifold to really take advantage of stage 2 cams.

its ok to have blower cams without the blower, you just wont see the full potential until your blown.

hmm... if I got cams I'd probably get 2's just for the sound... Thats actually mostly the reason i'd buy them...
