    anyone running any performance cams in their 225? if so, is there a big difference in power? i order a master rebuild kit today from autozone. their cams were like $84 for stock. if a performance cam isn't to much more money, than i would buy one. any thoughts? pros and cons? -thanks :beer:

    If you go with a "performance" cam you will want to stick with the mildest of "RV grind" cams. It's very tempting to go with more cam, but that will move your power band up into the upper RPM ranges where you don't need it to be. FWIW I'd go with a stock cam. ;)
