You want smaller cams and that is a proven setup. Just make sure to get very good pictures of his cams from him showing all of the lobes on all sides. I have seen to many stories of people getting hosed on cams because the picture shown looked awesome but the other side of the cam had some serious damage.

Re: Trade MY BC 280's for HKS 264/272
i know those are a very proven cam combo but my only concern is that i would need to upgrade later. my overall goal is e85 and whatever boost it will take with an hx35 eventually.
just looking for some reassurance. i had Web cams on my gst (Erix has em now) i wish i would have kept those lol but i think the are really similar to the hks 264/272

delta k's are getting good reviews right now. And that has definitely been dyno proven. i think it was something like 30 hp over the 264/272 set up.

The Delta K272's are not regrinds. They are grinded from a solid billet core. Just like hks, bc and every other manufacturer does it. Not a regrind. They were selling for 368 shipped but since the dyno sheets have came back and all over DSMtuners I think they went up.

The K272's are the Kelford profile grind offered by Delta Cams and are only able to made using new billet cores. +1 for Delta's here, mine work great but cost less.
