It offers quicker spool-up with bigger turbo's, lower egt's.
Really the Cam's are not meant to raise peak power. Your power band will usually start lower.

Scheid diesel also offers a selection of Cam's. I run one in my 04.5

I run a pdr cam and love it. It does seem to spool quicker and pulls alot smoother down low.

Piers and mark both talked me out of it. but at the time i was only talking an ht2b 370's on a 215 pump he said the gains would be marginal for the cost and in my towing application. i still think about it though

There has been lots of talk about cams, but I have never seen specifics... How about numbers???? Duration at .050", rec. centerline, lobe separation, and lift for stock and these guys' bumpsticks....
