Cam Discussion

For someone who doesn't want to do internal work and wants a great amount of added power from cams, which set would be the best choice?

Remember - No internal work! Just cams.

What do you guys recommend?

Doesn't matter what set of cams...at minimum you'll need to bleed the lifters. Does that count as internal work?

probably get more response in a more appropriate forum. go down to the turbo/power forum, its discussed in 4-5 new threads per day.

BUT, quick overview - HKS popular, no springs/work needed for 264, 272 or 280 (expensive for the gains) Brian Crower no work needed 264/272, fairly popular and cheap. Comp cams no work needed for 264 (maybe 272), not as popular, still fairly cheap. Cosworth 264/272, no work, popular, expensive. GSC S1 no work needed, very popular, similar price to HKS. JUN's - forget em, expensive and requires work. Tomei - see JUN. Buschur Racing BF customs - see JUN. I'm sure there are more, but those are the most commonly discussed

I got HKS cams with alcohol and tuned by Sean Ivey. It's a beast for "stock". Good luck!

I wouldn't say bleeding the lifters is internal work, jus somethin you should do so you don't bend a valve or somethin, I got Brian Crower stage 2 or 272's, haven't installed them yet but you get a pair for a great price
