Stock bottom end. Unported heads, not milled, no valve job, never been off the car stock.
Car is everyday driver. Only issue i have with cam is that it surges a tad if you back off the gas quckly at ~1500rpms. As long as you are giving it gas all is well. 24-26mpg on highway with 4.33 gears
Cam pulls 11 inches or so of vacuum. Power brakes werent as good as they were before cam change. I compensated for that with tuning so that the car idles at 1500-1600 when slowing down so that the brakes work fine. Once it comes to complete stop, it idles down to 875.

As for vacuum, I want to keep power brakes... without getting a tune you got isnt it possible to get a vacuum reserve/booster put in? would that be easier/safer?
Thanks,

I see, I've been debating on streetable cams yet wanting to run 11's na... and hell you did it with stock unported heads which is ***in a' sweet!.... As for the surging, if your crusing and the RPMs are at ~1500rpm will it feel/drive any different than driving at ~2500rpm?

Do you think its possible to get rid of all the cam surge with tuning?
How do you think this cam will run with stockheads and stock 3:42 gearing? Think the cam surge will be more evident or will it be liveable? Thanx!

this thread is helping my hydrolic roller or solid roller cam decision quite a bit.. I need a cam that makes power all the way to 7k and haven't been having luck finding a hr to do it.. looks like i might have to sack up and get a sr
