Default TFS cam combos? Anyone running these?

I did search and came back with nothing, wondered if anyone is running these on stock headed cars and what gains can be made? Pretty high lift cam for a stage 2.

I talked with someone at Trick Flow a while back, and was told the stage 2's were a little to aggressive for the stock heads, and would require notches in the pistons to clear.

Yeah, that's part of it. The intake duration and centerline should also be of concern. There is not alot of clearence on the intake side for our cars. Of course you could always retard them so they'll clear, but in doing so you'll lose power.

What's the opinion about stage 1s? I talked to a rep from TF today who said they can be used on stock headed cars and ported head cars should see over 300rwhp but non proted cars will only see around 280-285rwhp. Their package is jyust a great deal and leaves me money for a good solid tune.
