Can I ask what criteria you were using to make your choice, I'm looking to do some work on mine?
What else did you look at?
I'm after low torq, not more top end.
Thanks,
Scott

I was undecided with the se 251,zippers 575,and the andrews55, the main reason I was looking to change was to get away from the EPA cam and cool the engine down,I plan to change the comp,head work and larger TB

scott, there are many options to get more power from our motors...if you're looking for low end torque, your exhaust may be hurting you...a good set of slip-on's on stock headpipes will work better than what you have and of course 2 into 1's are king for low range torque...the stock cams make the best torque below 3000rpm and I'd keep them unless you're willing to raise compression...those andrews 55's work good above 10.0 compression as do the se251's...a couple of good performance shops near you are R&D Performance and World Class Tuning, both in Watertown, Mn

How is the low end tq with those 55's and stock compression? From my experiance they can be a little soft. Maybe the 110 wouldnt have the same results though.

The 55 cam can work very well we use it in many of the 107 kits we build. Tq wise with the correct compression it wil pull extremely hard and keep pulling to the top rpm range.

How many miles on them are you going back with stock rods? Doing the bearing upgrade?
