Cams on Southwest Autoworks

Has anyone bought these and put them on? I am curious what kind of gains they give and performance time cuts, especially with a 2.5" exhaust and light flywheel? I think the engine should get a deeper growl with it. Is it a good gain for the $1,000 spent? http://store.yahoo.com/southwestauto...rnecanima.html

More important than the peak #s is where the peak occurs. Iron Lung's HP peak was at redline without an aftermarket ECU. Talk about a flat torque curve. A car with 200 HP at 6550 will be much faster than a car with 205+ HP at 6000.

You wont get peak HP at redline without cams. And with an aftermarket ECU it would truly be a beast.
