Today I ordered the JWT S1 cams..."Ben" told me that the gains are about 12-14 horses...yikes that's a chunk of change! I guess that nears $40 a horse!!! Sheesh back in the day a great horse was only $12! These better be very large horses!!!

Very nice! I've always been curious about these cams, just haven't had a good enough reason to have a mechanc tear down the engine yet!

 

Are these the mild or the more "extreme" cams? How much are they going to affect your idle? Will you lose some low-end? Gas mileage? Are you replacing anything while you're in there? Are these re-grinds?

 

I'm very curious, and look forward to your writeup when you get 'em in! Nice job! :clap:

These are the mild cams. The extreme cams are the S2. I have them but not installed. From what I understand, your idle should be ok. I'll take 12 - 14 horse anyday over the stock 153 I have now (not including the headers and air intake).

I am replacing the Lifters and Valve cover gaskets, as recommended, other than that...the old truck will get:

 

New Timing Belt, Tensioner, Water pump, Bypass hose, Xterra T-Stat, Cam seals, Charcoal Canister w/evap vent valve.

 

I hope that it is worth the effort...the cams that is :confused:

Then, maybe a chip is next? Or some high flow cats and exhaust if you don't have them already.

 

I wanna do the chip, but it will be the LAST thing I do. I just dropped my beast off to get the headers take out and sent back, new high-flow cats and new 02 sensors. I just got the frame rust and rear sets fixed.
