well right now the car has 3:55 gears but im going to be switching to 4:10's. the install wasnt hard but at sometimes during the install you will need a extra set of hands. the cams DO NOT come with instructions. for the install i used hammerons wright up, his directions were spot on. as far as the tools go, buy the special tools you wont regret it. and the sound that car makes after you get done will put a smile on your face that goes ear to ear!!

Hammerons wright up was for the Hot Rod cams, do they require phaser limiters as well?

gains in hp aren't that noticeable right now, well one thing it pulls harder through the high rpms but i really need to get my headers and gears done to get the full affect.
