OK, I'll help you out here. The 274's are way too much cam for stock heads. Your low/mid range torque will suck not to mention possible PTV problems. If I were set on stock heads I'd have went with the Hitech stage II without hesitation.

Cool thanks. That really helps alot. I guess though i have been coming to this kind of closed minded. I just shut out CMS because of the intake being smaller to the exhaust. Ill call him and talk to him and then make up my choice after that. Thanks!

That makes perfect since.
