I'm being lazy asking this question, but does OE still offer cam kits for the warrior?

After having a set of OE lifters go bad. I switched my OE cams for PR cams. I can tell you there is no comparison PR makes much better stuff. Don't waste your money on OE. The PR cams make more power off idle all the way to redline.

The "new" OE cams seem to be the same profile as Speedstar.Reason I know is that I have both sets of cams (its a really long story)& had them compared.If you talk to OE or look in their catalog it is stated that stock lifters can be used with their "new" cams.I also hsd lifter go bad w/orig.OE cams which caused teeth in cam gears to chip.Lifter was replaced by OE's vendor & it wouldn't pump up.The orig.OE cam kit was better performong than current one.In defense of OE, the ceramic lifters formerly used by them look to be the same as PR ceramic lifters & as I recall some members had probs.with the PR lifters.

Check this out, I am very happy with the OE mods on my warrior. 106 RWHP and 130 RWTQ. Dyno sheet on my warrior page.
But then again, I could be wrong. Its probaly the Patrick Racing filter / intake that unleashes the monster.
Cant wait for the track to open and feel what this monster will do in the 1/4 mile.

You got it there man. Both vendors used, or still use Schubeck lifters. They are very spendy units. Problem is they have had quality issues with the lifters. Nothing can ruin a cam quicker. I am surprised to hear that OE says you can now use stock lifters with their cams. Something is definately changed.
