So Im thinking about getting a NIC cam from zzp. I was wondering if I needed the upgraded springs, retainers, rollmaster double roller, and the comp OE-R lifters. Or would I be fine without it. Im going to top swap in the near future.

springs and retainers, yes.
the rest, no.
11-29-2011
okay thanks that helps a lot. saves about 400 extra bucks.

so what benifit does the NIC have over other cams. i read on ZZP that it is a difficult cam to tune. but that it can make great power with minor mods.

its difficult to tune if you dont use a wideband. the reason it makes 'great power' is because of the large amount of overlap (both valves open at the same time) so it bleeds boost. this allows you to run smaller pulleys than normal.

I like the lopey idle it has and I would have someone tune it for me
11-29-2011
and if it bleeds boost is that bad?
11-29-2011
no boost out of his gt though. or is this in the wrong section?
11-29-2011
what car are you contemplating putting this in? this will be a BAD cam for an n/a car.

He's topswapping, so it's assumed he would install the cam at that time.

yeah around the same time, might have the cam in a little before the top swap though. depends.

Hold off on the cam, do it all while you already have it apart. As said before, you don't want to put that cam in without a supercharger or it'll be bad news for your motor.
