ok guys i've got performer heads (1.9/1.6) and a typhoon intake.. i need to figure out what cam i should get with this setup.. i dont have the money to get one from ed curtis, or i would.. so im open to all cams other than custom.. im looking to get the most i can out of this setup while staying somewhat streetable.. and im not to worried about emmissions, so that isn't a problem.. anyone else have the same setup? and if you do what cam are you running and what kind of numbers are u making? i pretty much have everything picked out except this.. so any help at all would be great.. thanks

hows your torque? and how is it on cold start ups? i was looking at this cam before and the duration seemed liked alot to me, and i dont want to have to fly cut my pistons.. you wouldnt happen to have any numbers would you? thanks for the reply.. keep them comin

torque is good. really awsome above 3500. no cold start problems at all. as a matter of fact i dont even give my car any gas even on the first start in the morning. i have 1.7 rockers so i have valve reliefs cut out. but with 1.6 rockers you might not have issues with clearence but in not positive. my motor was built for a supercharger so i dont have any numbers yet. but seat of the pants with my set up right now in N/Aform id say im 300hp at the wheels.....when i install my procharger p-1sc and my cobra intake ill be 430 whp. but i wont know for sure till i put it on the dyno and the wideband...

i recomend the F cam even for n/a applications..im sure others will disagree but it works awsome with my set up

Fox won't crank over and fuel pump won't kick on.
