Default Crow/Wade Cams for the AU

Phoned Crow and Wade cams today about a cam for my AU 2. Wade said they do not supply them for the AU anymore as they have had no success extracting decent enough power gains with non ECU chip upgrade cams over the stock cam.

Crow make one they recommended it is a 201/194 at 50 deg, 111 LSA. The stock AU according to them is a 181/197 at 50 deg, 119 LSA the lift is nearly the same between the two.

There is 17 degrees duration (with in and ex duration taken together) between the two cams which is alot of increase over the stock cam for a non chip upgrade cam and 111 to 119 LSA which is from moderate to very wide.

These two cams are like chalk and cheese in comparison and yet according to Crow they have had it on the dyno it still only makes between 6 and 8 rwkws more power than the stock cam.

Still nearly 10 percent is not bad and it may make more with free flowing exhaust system. I would like to have found out how much more power this cam made in the low to midrange rpm because thats what I would be inclined to purchase it for.
