With The mods in my signature, what would be the best set of cams for my car? Not based on price, but based on performance and quality. I do not mind paying more for better performance and quality/reliability. Thanks for the help!

That's what i was thinking, but i wasn't too sure if maybe I should go for the Stage 2, but i'll stick with the Stage 1. What kind of power gains do they give usually?

i'd like some VT's also but i hear they are pushed back again until july? Damn i've been waiting for their supplier to get them some cores for months....i may just order the comp 262 ah, they are also a very good cam. I'm running out of time, i'll be installing my PI heads and intake in a few weeks and i'd like to install the cams/springs while the heads are off.

With the stock intake design, both the Stage 1's and Stage 2's tend to yield close to the same hp results. Now, if you have an aftermarket intake like the one from Fox Lake, then definately go with the stage 2's as they will result a higher net gain in power. Also, as stated above....if you plan on going with Stage II's, be prepared to upgrade to aftermarket springs.
