im planning to do a cam swap later this year or early next year... and im trying to decide on a cam to use.

im curious as to what the best cam would be to use with stock heads? if heard decent things about the CC305 and the XE224/230 cams... how do they do on stock heads? and is there a better cam out there that would work better?

Way too many different opinions. If you want all out power, a custom unit will be the best. What do you consider best though? Drivability, power, emissions, idle, auto, 6 speed. Gotta be more specific

sorry... itll still be a daily driver, but i dont have to worry about emmisions. I want to have good power up top. Im working with an auto that will have a 3200 stall...

any suggestions now...? :p

ive heard you can use the 224/230 on stock heads and get ok results, better if you port ofcourse.

I run a CC306 which is not emissions freindly and depending on who you are may not be daily driver freindly, although I don't have a problem with it. My heads are basically stock besides a valve job, and I have Headers. The cam is a 230/244 .540/.570 on a 112 LSA. made pretty decent power with it and hope to really improve when the car gets a set of heads.
