The only other possible cam provider is the old Sho Shop that is being reopened under the name "SHO Bros" . . . they have some "Stage 1" cams that they believe will provide about 15 HP more than SVT cams. On my old engine that would have put me in the 230 FWHP range, on the new engine, considering the additional mods, that would probably put me in to the 250 FWHP range . . . which isn't bad, but we were hoping for 300 FWHP out of the new engine, something in that range.
no bad! you'd be asking for more trouble than you already have.

I dunno about you two but I just dont see how the d2s are streetable [ironically none of us has really proven that]. but bbox reguardless, you really need immediate plans of a second car. You have reached the perverbial mtang4lfe at 3am; "I have ruined a perfectly good car" moment.

I wanna redyno with more stock parts. I bet I can get those numbers up quite a bit.
