Just becuse you want to run the setup to be different means you might be building it wrong
Again im only been in the 2.0 scene, and havent really botherd with stroker stuff until now
9:1 compression wesico,eagle rods,ARPs,MLS, 272s was my old setup

Valid point, my friend. I am doing as much research on this before I go buying parts. I would hate to have purchased a set of cams only to not be happy with it.

Sure, you might see a nice power gain from 8500-9k, but at the loss of some midrage where you will likely be spending more time, infinately more if you aren't going to try to rev it to death. While bigger motors need a more aggressive cam, they need to be aggressive in the right ways to get more out of it.

As I stated above, i want to be sure that what I buy is the right cam for my application. I was going with the 280's simply because they are a more aggressive cam. What you said though does make sence and i will be making phone calls to get more of the techinical information I want. Oh and the thing about not believing people..... I do but I am sure you can agree with me that there has been a lot of BS floating around threads these days. (not saying anything about anyone in this thread) I just have learned not to trust everything that people say in forums. UNLESS, its a trusted source. ONCE AGAIN, nothing against anyone in this thread.
