I finally picked up a set of Comp XE268H cams; planning on getting them in over Easter break here in a couple a weeks. I was wondering about whether or not I should degree them. I plan on just swapping them in using the method that doesn't require the removal of the timing cover. I've read a couple a things about people not degreeing them, having no problems, and loving it. Then I hear other people that wouldn't even install a new cam without degreeing them in.
So is it really worth the $150+ extra to get the adjustable cam gears and degree the cams, for an extra 5-10 hp? Can you degree them in without adjustable cam gears? Or can a shop do it somehow without having to buy the adjustable cam gears? Any advice is appreciated.
And also, I'm thinking about getting my car dynoed over at Top Speed Performance in Greenville, NC after my cam swap. They're only a few minutes from where I live, and I've heard some good things about them from a few people. Has anyone on here heard anything about them, or had any experience with them? Thanks.
