Default Cam head combo

I was wondering if anyone has tried CMS stage 1 cams with a pair of patriot stage II heads? Any guess on power after/before a tune?

Well i already have the stage 1 cams and i loved them... but Luckey me... after 2 days the timing guide broke and the chain popped a tooth and i got some piston valve contact. So I needed new heads. But i agree 2.5's would be better

I am waiting on my stage 2 heads and stage 2 cams from CMS right now...

I was going to go with the 2.5's, but I didn't want to have to deal with doing all the timing and degreeing to make sure there was no PTV. I just wanted to bolt them in, make sure my timing was on and let it go.
