Just curious what I may be missing?, and why some have gone down that path?

Thanks

Stocker cams are lift enforced, so to get the duration on these lobes, they are very squared on the nose making it hard for a lifter to follow at higher RPM's unles they have alot of open pressure on the springs

Thanks for the reply Bub, I am aware of the lift rules, I just would have thought that there must be a better way than resorting to spring pressure, and the problems that come with it.

The performance products intake seems to be quicker in the 1/4.
The GM Performance Parts intake runs good in the 1/8. I'm currently running the GM intake.
