Hey all, I have the car in my sig and the engine except for a pulley and tune is bone stock. I was thinking of putting a set of cams in it. My question is what do you suggest? I'm mainly looking at the sound of it but also how well would it drive. What gains would I typically see and also, are they worth the price tag? Thanks!

Most people agree that there is no point to putting cams in a Terminator, even if they come from a super duper car...

So what you're saying is the money could be spent better elsewhere?

^+1. Swapping cams on these cars just aren't the same swapping them on a pushrod. But if you're more in it for the sound you should browse some vids on Youtube
