da_horse... i've checked the TODA site before. i'm looking more into the small companies. i know there's a site located "down under" called kelford cams. i've been in contact with them but still looking for other companies. yeah, know that i have to use adjustable cam gear on the exhaust side and no i won't be running with the stock ECU, got a good deal on a standalone ecu.
btw, i'm looking at anywhere north of 272, maybe like a 290+ with maybe 8.5+ duration. but i don't think i'll be able to run the VVT with this though. we'll see!
thanks for the reply.
