    Okay guys, listen to this.
    We did cam and springs for a guy and made 408rwhp in his TA. Pretty good for cam only.
    Well, he brings his friend in and tells me he wants the "exact" same thing. Okay, easy enough.
    So we install the same cam and springs, tune and dyno the car. Car make almost the same numbers, over 400rwhp with only headers, cam, lid, and tune.
    The guy comes to pick the car up and he is standing beside his car and we start it. No surge, idles perfect at 800rpm with this 236 112 cam. Great lope; car sounds bad ass. Well, he doesnt like it because it lopes. This guy rode in his friends car; asks for the "exact" same thing, and then doesnt like the lope.
    To top it off, he is having us pull the cam tomorrow and put an LS6 cam in. He could have used less spring too than the Patriot doubles.
    Oh well. I guess it doesnt matter. He is paying for another cam install

    by the way, if someone wants a cheap cam that sounds bad ass, send me $200.00 236/236 .580 .580 112

    It has stock springs on the heads, but with any cam, you need upgraded springs. At least 918s
