Wondering what you guys thought about these cams, and do I need to upgrade springs? I dont plan on cranking the motor thru the sky.

What are your plans and mods for the car? Even if springs are not required, you will get more out of cams by aftermarket springs and proper degreeing

Not serious, just wanted some extra power and a good idle to go along with the long tubes'x-pipe/pullies/cai not really thinking of throwing any power adders at it

Any company's stage 1 cams would be good and Hitechs stage 2 works well with stock heads. If I was looking at those TF cams, I would go with new springs. The wider(numerically more) lsa will provide better idle quality.

I agree, with those cams springs would be preferred.
