I want to get those web cams everyone is touching on...so i send my cams out to get reground to the 294s??? Both of them? Or like one's a 272 and the other is 294? What about head work? Do I need to upgrade the springs or valves or fuel management or anything at all? Please give me some advice guys cause I'm about to start the build soon.

you lose virtually nothing down low with dustins webcams.
i would assume with a similar grind from coltcams, the result would be the same.
i have spoken with geoff about his cams (hes the owner of coltcams) and he claims to use some diffrent machining " tricks" to get the most out of whatever grind it is, both high and low.
we'll have to see the dyno results once someone gets a set for real world results.
for now, you can check dustins post about his cams for an overlay of his dyno run VS mine, that shows the exact #s..
from when ive driven it, and heard him talk about it, ive never felt like there was a power loss that was noticeable down low, just the massive gain past torque peak.
it really makes the car much more "sporty" to say the least.
