You can make more power with newer tech cams.

For the price of TODA's VTEC Killer's, you can purchase a new set of better cams, valvetrain, and have plenty of money leftover for tuning. You will never see a single all-motor car that is serious on making the most power use VTEC Killers. The advantages of running VTEC Killers is not power, but rather lighter LMA and rotating assembly for better durability in endurance racing.

I would suggest the Skunk2 Pro2, Rocket M22X, or Buddy Club 4. Unless you are insistant on going JdM y0`, then you can go with the TODA C's, but you can make more power with the aforementioned cams.

skunk2 pro2's eh? How are those monsters treating you Marshall? You know I should be up and running very soon, and I want that rematch! lol

Oh, and to add input to the thread... I went with BC4'S. Anything Marshall mentioned will be good, he is a fountain of information. Especially on cams!

They're great. Way more midrange than the BC5's, but I do miss the power holding to 9500 like it did with the BC5's.

I saw that your block got back from the machine shop last week. Can't wait to see how much power we can make. BTW I'm jealous of your pistons, now that CP has lightweight units, I definately know what I'm switching out for next time.
