I just ordered some cams. Can't freaking wait, they are DKS (not typo) 272's. They're 365 shipped for both. These have a lot of good feedback and cost like half of HKS cams. Here's a link if anyone's interested. Oh and they come with a 1 year warranty!! http://www.ffwdconnection.com/cams.shtml

Don't be ignorant Bush doesn't control fuel prices.

Good! I was looking into them too! Let me know how they work out for you. Im sure your car will sound beastly. Are you getting valve springs too or just throwing them in with a stock head?

Stocke head for now, they're fine to use in a stock head as long as you don 't rev really high like more than 8k.
Bush does control gas price, by deregulating the industry he has allowed companies to monopolize a good essential to the economy. It's like allowing electricity companies charge whatever they want.

Thats like saying that I can control how many times I take a dump by how much I eat but the bottom line is shit happens

"as you don 't rev really high like more than 8k"

Wow, I would only be taking it to 7,200 because thats where the rev limiter is lol.

LMAO at Bush controlling prices. LMAO at who said it.

Anyway, about the cams, it's a definite knock-off (DKS), so I wouldn't use them, not something I would trust, but hopefully they work fine. I wouldn't count on the warranty though, way too easy for them to get out of that (intallation error they say usually). Good luck with them though, I'm interested to see airflow differences. I hope you prove me wrong

Well i'm not really worried about the warranty most companies that offer a warranty have the balls to back it up. That really had nothing to do with me buying these cams. I was searching on tuners and everyone who had the recomended them. I will definetly take sevral logs before and after. Oh they are eactly the same cut as the hks 272's.
EDIT: Did anyone notice the 1800hp head gasket they sell? It doesn't even need o-rings and it held 43psi!!!

87 is $2.76 here, 92 is like $2.96. I think I am going to convert my Talon to run on E85. We were talking about it some where else, all you need to do is replace anything the gas will come into contact with from aluminum to steel, make sure the rubber that the gas will touch gets replaced with teflon, and you have to have fuel management because you have to aim for like a 9:1 or 10:1 air/fuel ratio. E85 is much cheaper but milage goes down so you dont end up saving anything, but it is 105 octane. Hmmmm, basically cheap race gas that I can get easily and for about the same cost per mile as 87. Is there really a question?

. If I decide to do it, I'll let you guys know how it turns out.
