Dont worry yourself with 1.7's. Just call Isky cams or Comp cams, they're about the best, and have them grind you a custom cam and just run some 1.6's. Custom cams are tailored specifically to your set up and needs. Its the only way to fly.

Cam help is great but you don't need a new cam to run 300hp
