Before which cam you should put in....
Your first question should be:
1. What are you trying to achieve?

Are the choices between low end torque and high end HP or is there a middle choice?

sure, you can grind a cam to perform exactly where you want it to
most complain about torque and then we have the group that wants all out numbers on the track
feel free to be the guy in the middle!
