gary,

how about torque? i eventually plan on a serious project with my V6, and
i'm trying to balance horsepower, torque, and a blower (maybe even some
custom engine work... but that's when the JD comes through, and i'm rolling
in cash). i was thinking of getting the cam and 1.6's, but if that kills
the bottom end too much, then i'll stick with the stock cam and 1.7's.

oh all the things to think about, and no money to think about them with...

The comp cams 1.6 ratio cams (part no 1424-KIT) will work perfect. They also are significantly cheaper than the crowers. The 1.7's really don't give you that much HP compared to the 1.6's. If your doing the rocker arms, I'ld recomend a camshaft too. a Comp Cams 504/.512 Lift, 200/206 Duration (part no 3310) should work nicely, thats what I'm using for my new V6.
