B cam vs E cam

[NO SLO PK]

I use the E and would recommend it. Friends have switched from B to E cams and have run the same mph in the quarter before and after(mph is an indication of power, so both were making the same amount). They switched from B to E because the E has better street manners (e.g., more stable idle and improved low end).

Believe it or don't, I've heard the B cam was really intended for use with 1.7 rockers. That makes sense given its relatively low lift.
