Default Best K Series Cam Question

whats going on guys. I'm thinking of upgrading my cams for my stock k20. I'm going to leave it a stock block and i was wondering if anyone has some info on which type of cams and valve-train to use and why. I've been hearing a few names like skunk 2, drag cartel, blue print etc so if anyone can help with some info that would be great, even a dyno chart with a set up for a stock k20 block with a head package would be nice.

Kelford 179-A's would make decent power as well, and you can retain the OEM springs & retainers.

You would still need to run Kpro right?

Kpro is necessary for the most gains from your mods. Plus a tune is essential for fuel economy and for your motor to run safely

Drag Cartel drop-in's or 2.2's have my vote. Few guys have hit 250 on both those cams with stock k20a/a2's. Be careful with the Kelford A's, many people have been experiencing problems with these including myself. Either way i can tell you to definitely NOT go with Skunk2 cams. Plenty of info on that.
