so has any one put after market cams aside from the ecutune cams on their svx? i am looking at starting a performance n/a build and i am wondering who has had results. also where can i find the stock cam specs for lift and duration, i haven't seen them around.
thanks
Jeff

Re: aftermarket cams
after experiencing all the bolt-in cam profiles that have been used thus far, I have to say SVXRide's "special sauce" profiles are a VERY nice fit for a stock engine that keeps streetability

The cams in Bills car maintain a great idle, don't take away the down low torque, and gives the car a good top-end torque increase. Ideal for a bdget performance increase. I can imagine with a better exhaust than what he has now it would only get better

Re: aftermarket cams
Are these the profile Harvey suggested? I thought he was recommending the intakes be installed with 120 degree centers.
