Re: cam
Stay away from the thumper series. I was looking at them for my 350 but out of probably several dozen reviews I read only one was positive. They are made to create all sound and no power. Comp and Voodoo cams seem to get the best reviews.

Re: cam
Ok thanks, I was about to buy a thumper, good thing I asked first! I'll have to listen to the 268 comp.
