Default Trickflow or CMS Stage 2s?

Which one is going to yield better gains? I was going to go with Cushman Stage 2 cams and Manley Nextek Hi load valve springs and titanium retainers. Then I seen the Trickflow Stage 2 cams in the new Summit book. Which do you guys think will perform better?

The CMS Stage 2's are proven so it's a no-brainer.

those TF Stage 2's have a huge lift on them (.580 IIRC), so you might run into some PTV clearance issues

apparently TFS has a whole different line of cams coming out for their heads. I'm kinda interested in seeing what they do there!

Cushman is proven so go with him. Trickflow ones are not available yet.

errr im on my phone so i cant see any of ur mods if any are listed.

what cams are in there now?

picking a cam based on overall power gains can lead to a big disapointment.
