As with most of these builds, they are aimed specifically at a racing class. Given the 5 speed ratios and a 4.77 diff, you want a specific power level 4500-8000. Stock cams achieve that.
We have yet to test or see data for any cam that makes as much low and midrange corner exit N/A torque without huge steps/dips than the stock BP6D cams. Im sure its possible to improve, I just havent seen it so I still recommend stock cams for builds like these. Sonnys PTD/TTD crushing NB2 engine from nationals was a blueprinted stock 1839cc 10.3:1 BP6D long block.

Yup, the BP6D just makes more torques. My CA91 best is 145lbs @ 4250rpm with 10.4:1 85.5's, ~130whp from 4600-8300 (capped). That's the one that got killed by the broken TB shaft at Sonoma last year :(
I think Eric didn't want to mess with VVT. He asked whether he could hit his targets with a 4W on E85 and I thought he could.
To be fair E85 doesn't seem to make much more torque over pump below torque peak. I notice most of the gains are past the torque peak, assuming you reach MBT on CA91. That magic is running a bunch more compression than you can with pump gas.

A few updates:
We are now offering Tomei cams as an option in our CNC heads. They are short duration and can be made to idle like stock with a little tuning finesse. We just started playing with these cams but we're seeing roughly 10% power gains for any given build. Check every option including cams on a BP6D have and you have exactly whats in deviate right now. We're getting so much flow from the +2mm O/S CNC head that it's about 2psi lower boost but another 20whp than we would see with a stock head.
Cam specs on the website.

I am already eyeing this for the race car. I did port the head; the amount it was ported I am sure there is some inconsistencies between the ports, and the valves and all that are stock. Originally wasn't planning to go over 7,000 but why not if I can. The cams you guys have are probably not boost-friendly? Would you still recommend +2 for turbo too? It's odd as talking to a few boosted local gurus (drag racing, 5,000+ HP) they keep the exhaust valve small for velocity reason... What are your thoughts on that?
Additionally what sort of a cost increase for ceramic coating? How has been the longevity of the coating? We have had some uber-failures on rotaries with the ceramic coating on the rotors...
