I'm also interested in any information on those cams... Like why the first ones are so cheap- and why the 2nd ones aren't.. and if I need to ship my cams in to the 2nd shop to have them work on it.. etc
Ok, now I'm even MORE confused after reading in depth the stuff on the site- whats the difference between the various cams and stuff? This post has been edited by shid: Jun 5, 2004 - 5:03 PM |

what i understand about the 2nd set is that you have to hardweld it onto your stock cam. Good question about sending it in. I don't know, i would probably personally rather have my own guy here do it for me.

Topline cams are replacement cams. Nothing special about them at all.
As far as the Web Cams, they are regrinds; you'll have to ship the cams to Web to have them reworked. The process usually doesn't take a long time, but you will be without a car. Junkyard cams are fine for regrinding, so long as they aren't in horrible shape ( bad journals or too rusty). Web's 101 grind is more aggressive than the 294; it is designed for more high-rpm power, and will probably move the powerband out of reach of a stock 5SFE. (The 101s make power up to redline in 4AGE applications, which is ~7800RPM.) |

do you have this S C M? And actually, going back to domestic drag racing, if you can find a rusty cam, that's great, believe it or not, they are hard as heck, 3 times, if not 4 times harder than a regular, clean cam. Rusty cam's would start fights to who got them back in my father's drag days. So anyways, you would recommend the 101 grind?

There are more things to consider than simply getting the most agressive profile... what if you can't even run that profilt without significant work?

If you're all stock, go with the 577, and get some bolt-ons. The 101 grind won't be ideal for a stock 5SFE, you'd probably end up losing power and torque. Kwanza26 is correct... I would wager that a fair amount of modifications would be necessary to get the most out of the 101 profile. |

Go with which ever you choose. Just so you know... camshafts are NOT bolt-on performance parts. They require a certian level of tuning to fully utilize their potential. The 577 grind, from what I've read in the past, is fine for street use (based on specs). The 5SFE head is pretty restrictive in stock trim, so more agressive cam profiles can potentially really open it up. I would suggest some flowbenched head work... but that's just me. -------------------- "It's ok to be naked girl... I'm an artist!"
