Hi

What cam depends on how much power you want ???
You get different kinds, Fast Road, Mild Road etc.....from both Piper and Kent.
I have a mild road cam from Kent which has done the job well :smile:
Oh.....i recommend you get a vernier pulley, as well, to set up the cam properly.

if you want "loadsa power" then you will need a Fast Road type cam. But, remember that this will put extra strain on the engine's bottom end..........i hope your car has been looked after ??

I've got a Kent 35K cam which i'm very chuffed with, I gained loads of mid range power and a lot a torque, but the cars sounds very tappy on idle, which doesnt bother me :Q
