manual is more lift and probly duration (ie more aggressive)

auto is designed for a lower redline - 7600 or something.

PS dunno how to physically tell the diffeence besides comparing lobe height...

So do you think the auto cams would make more bottom end torque

i know that i sure do have them, although

I have a b16 in my 96 EK cx aourced from a JDM auto B16a because it had the torque converter still attached to it, so we knew.

but i still run a 15.0 with worldsport exhaust 4-1 and 8lb flywheel, but i would love to know how fast that really is putting hp to the ground.

BTW i hate drag racing, track is better
