stage 1 and 2 cam

what are the differences in the raptor stage 1 and raptor stage 2 cams

stage 1 is a good all around cam,stage 2 is more upper midrange and top end.

there is less overlap on the stage 1 cam; it has a longer intake duration and shorter exhaust duration which results in more bottom end torque

from the hotcams catalog:

if I switch to a stage 1 raptor can I still use the spring kit that I installed for the stage 2

Yes..i still run the kibble white springs with my stage 1 raptor cam...it will be fine.

yes I also run kibble springs an I run the mud buster stage one no problem 

same here kibble springs stage 1 raptor cam

Before you spend $180+ on a Stage1 or Stage2 Cam you might purchase yourself a factory raptor cam for $20 and try it "thekevin" runs one on his after taking out his Stage3 cam and loves the bottom end,midrange, and topend since the curve is a more smooth curve and less of a radical spike in between might be what your looking for. I run a Stage2 Hot cam and I like it alot more topend HP but there is some tuning for sure involved with fuel controller to get it to run as it should and out of the stock raptor, stage2, or stage3 cams the stock raptor was the only one that didnt have a lull on take off even though the stage2 and stage3 lull can be tuned to get alot of it out but not all of it. Just my 2 cents for ya!

I just purchased a stock Raptor cam, can't wait to get it in...
