Does anyone have dyno numbers on the Comp Cam XE262AH and the VT Stage 1 cams? I'm not really interested in peak HP but HP increases over the entire powerband. I'm having a hard time picking between the two cams. My car will be raced this summer in bracket races but it also is a daily driver.

I have a 4R70W with a 3800rpm stall TC, LT headers, H-Pipe & Bassani Catback.


Thanks
Kurt

all the numbers I have been seeing are peak HP numbers, nothing showing the entire powerband

Here is my dyno from bolton with a crappy mail tune(red) vs now with VT stg 1s, Lts, dyno tune, ect. the LTs were added after the tune..but it didnt seem to effect it at all . Notice the power curve even with the cams/LTs...didnt really loose much of anything down low. I LOVE the cams.

KenB on Modular Depot has posted a couple of times a dyno graph of car with Comp 262's and a car with VT Stg II cams, yes that is correct Stg II, that had identical mods. The Comp cammed car was right there HP and TQ with the VT's. I personally like the Comp cams better.

Perhaps, perhaps not!

I know of cars that had Comp 262's in it and swapped to VT Stg I's, gained no power but went faster in the 1/4. I know of cars that had VT Stg I's and swapped to Comp 262's, gained no power but went faster in the 1/4. Any comparison I have ever seen between VT Stg I and Comp 262's with cars that had identical mods, the Comp car had better HP/TQ numbers.

Which Cam do you like better? In the end it all depends on which cam works better for you, ie which one you like better as I think either will work well for you.
