Right now I have a built block capable of 1000+ hp, full exhaust with longtubes, trickflow trackheat intake. I have the procharger F1a set up sitting in the garage. I am going to buy patriot stage 3 heads.

I am looking to buy the cushman stage 3 blower cams. Is anybody running these cams? How is the driveability? How is the sound? Kinda hoping for a not very noticable change in lope.

Anyone wanna suggest a different cam?

Oh I do not want to have to flycut my pistons.

Wont need to flycut pistons with CMS's. Not a noticeable lope? that'd be hard to do. Stage II blower cams maybe then, but both 2's and 3's have a heavy lope. I think especially CMS's due to the tight LSA

I guess I will have to deal with the lope. I was hoping for a more stock sound but I want the power. I talked to jim at cushmans last night and he said I should get the stage 3's So I am getting those and the patriot stage 3 heads off them at the end of the month.

Anybody got a clip of the stage 3's in action

It's going to sound like a beast. Check youtube you should be able to find some sound clips.

I run them and like them. driveability is fine(with tune). they don't have a real aggressive lope,noticable, but stage 2 n/a's are much more aggressive sounding.

you tube and even a post on MF recently had some clips on them
