Well, not bad. If you could drop some specificity on the headers and perhaps, even an inkling about the cam specs like, 22X/23X, 6XX/6XX, 112 LSA, that might give us an idea of where and how the cam was specced. For someone like me, I take into heavy consideration the ramp rate and lift. That, to me, will help determine how often I'm going to have to replace springs.

Also, by your own disposition, where would you place this in your camshaft lineup? Entry level, ie; stage 1, if you will or is this more on your guys' top end for selection?

Full cam specs are in the link to the cam that I posted. The headers are 1.875" Hooker Headers, Hooker X pipe, and Corsa Sport mufflers.

A few people have asked about how the car drives under 2k rpm. So I've made it a point to drive the car in the lower rpm as much as I can just to gain some knowledge for when others ask this question.

Now that I have done this, I still don't know how to answer. It pulls off idle up to 2k without even giving it more than 1/16 throttle.

What are the concerns with under 2k rpm that you guys would be worried about? Everyone knows about cam surge/buck that you will have with a bigger camshaft by now I figure. I'll do my best to help with these age-old camshaft myths that everyone seems to hear about if you can let me know what you're mostly concerned about.

Very nice! Does it come with a muffin from Miss Angels? We love visiting out your way on the weekends. What would a package cost with everything you recommend as far as springs, gaskets, etc?

I don't normally like to post prices because 10 years from now someone will see it and want the same price lol. Shoot me an email matt@tick-performance.com

How safe would it be to shift this setup at say something like 7500-7600 rpm?

Looking at the dyno graph I would say no...7200 is about where you would want to shift it.

7200 would be the sweet spot with this setup.
