Alright so I browse these forums almost everyday. Got into cars last May and bought my GT in August of last year. Since then have been reading up and trying to learn as much as I could about my car and just cars in general.
So last Christmas I was sitting at a table with my father, uncle and older cousin explaining some things I was going to do to my car (cai/tune, o/r pipe, headers, etc) and I mentioned cams and was instantly hounded lol. They tried to tell me they read that its not good to swap the stock camshaft out, etc etc when I'm the one that sits on these forums most of the time! Haha.
If you're going a N/A route imo cams seems like a wonderful upgrade (and the sound, of course ). I plan do just do the basic bolt ons, nothing insane because I know everyone says it and they're totally right, just get a blower. Which is something that is a possibility in the future.
What I need from you guys is information on why its a good/positive idea to upgrade the camshaft in the car. I have a basic understanding of most things but need people with more knowledge and know the S197 more to really let me know.
A reason they may have said they read that is maybe the driveability issues with stage 2/3 cams? Not sure.
I plan on getting Hot Rods (yes, I know bbr and rockers may produce more power lol) but driveability or anything other problems shouldn't arise right? Just a nice power gain and sound?
