I run HKS 272/272 cams, and JBA3 likes stock DSM cams to match his cam gears. :biggrinjester:

Make sure you know what kind of powerband you want with that big turbo, because different cams will definitely have an impact on spool and topend characteristics.

Also find out which ones work best with the valve train you plan on running.

There's quite a few cams out there now days.

If you are going big turbo(not sure which once since you didn't say it) there is a cam test that AMS did and they tested about 10 different cams or so. That might help you in your decision.

Here's the link to the test: http://forums.evolutionm.net/evo-engine-turbo-drivetrain/343818-ams-evo-cam-test.html

Note the mid range vs top end differences.

I have the old school GSC 272's. They have worked pretty good so far. Thinking about upgrading to the Kelfords or the FP4R's when I do the head.

I got the BC272s and ARP head studs for like $499 installed during a group buy or intro pricing or something. It was freakishly cheap!

the 3076 has just as much lag as a 35r. and I have a set of BBC's

HKS 280's, I've had them since they were originally released when they were "ultra" aggressive. Plans are to get Kelfords 272's in the near future.

I'm trying to gain more weight. They put me on the scale when I asked for the BBC's and was denied. :(
