A 2V with cams NA? Lmao that is not even CLOSE to being on the edge power wise. Hearing that would automatically make me laugh, walk out and find a new tuner...
Which cams for stock engine?

Actually the one on the edge is my supercharged/intercooled 04 GT. Tuner said based on my power at the wheels through an auto that had a slipping converter clutch at the time it was pushing almost 500hp at the crank. On the edge for a stock bottom end according to him.
My son's 03 GT is the one getting cams.

I got MMR Custom grind cams for my Kenny Bell no notch needed for pistons
Very cool, will be a fun project to share with your son. Just a heads up, my Cams took about a month and half to get IIRC, looks like Comp may be doing the grinds for MHS now instead of Bullet Racing, so maybe service might be better. But I wouldn't stress too much if whatever lead time they're advertising now comes and goes.. just an fyi.

Ya, I know mine took 3-4 weeks to get. Jordan at MHS may have some on the shelf, but I’m pretty sure it’s all made when ordered.

Just give them a ring and see. I could be wrong

Well about 2 weeks ago I put the built trans and stage 2 MHS cams in my son's car. He went and got it tuned this morning.
238 hp and 270 ft/lbs at the wheels is what the tuner got out of it safely on pump gas. Figuring 20% loss with the auto he has about 298 hp at the crank. Not bad since his only other mods are CAI, 78mm tbody/plenum, O/R h pipe and cat back. Almost 40 hp over stock rating.

Long tubes will make it better
I put down 272 hp and 304 trq at the wheels

I had a typo. 277 ft/lbs not 270.
He could make more with long tubes but this is good enough for him for now. 120k miles on the car. Once he's done with school in 2 years i will probably put in a built bottom end with ported heads and possibly a supercharger.
Figures that he finally gets the tune and can now get on it to see how it feels and it's been raining all day so he can't get on it...

I gave MHS my money once, and they will never get it again. I am having my car worked on now, and the builder asked me who rebuilt the heads, because they look like a high school student did them.
I had them rebuilt by MHS in '09 (B heads). Motor went 500 miles before spinning 2 bearings (no relation to heads obviously) so they were freshly rebuilt when the new builder disassembled.
