You don't need it with your mods, and chances are that you are going to lose power by using that cam, especially down in the lower RPMs.

It may make your computer go berserk too.

Personally, I would never buy a used cam unless I was 100% aware of it's history or I trusted the seller explicitly.

They said the cam is brand new and was never installed . But I was just wondering what cam would be the best for me because I want a nice lopy idle hehe

You'll soon learn that sound isn't a way to pick a camshaft.

Why would you want the car to sound good and run not nearly as good as it sounds?

The cam is somewhat mild. So it wouldn't be that bad.

But it doesn't sound like he will accept paypal. I don't like that at all. Then there is no way to contest it w/ the credit card company if something happens.

112* LSA will probably freak the computer out a bit, and you'd need a chip to make it run well. Also, I would be careful what you wish for -- a lopey cam does sound good, but it has its downsides. Better to look for a cam that matches your combo and produces the most power under the curve.

that cam will be very choppy your computer will freak out and we will have to answre 15 threads on why your car dies at lights because you cant figure out how to tune it out as very few have.

dont waste your money at all.

anyways, the current bid is the cost of that cam new!!!

"paid big bucks" my A$$

taht is the cheapest cam on the market.

If I could do it all over again, I'd have something ground on a 116 or 118 LSA, so I could tell people it's stock.
