You my friend need to search! look around and see what other's are running and what they have done to their motors.

Essentially, are you looking to rev over stock rev limit? if not, stg 2. Do you plan on tuning? if no, stg 1 cam is all you can run. but you ned to spend some time searching!

You may need to search.
You don't need a tune to run a stage 2 cam. We did it back in the day when tuners where not accesible. Fpr with an ajustable cam gear and you can run a stage 2 cam.

Now if you want to get the most out of your satge2+cam then you'll want a tune.

Thats why this is called "OneCamOnly" . For some its not about the price. Its about the pride in which they take in building a Single Cam motor that stomps on all others. Sure it might cost a little more money for someone to get what they want out of a Single Cam motor. But doing a swap is too easy.Step up!

Where D's are better then B's and F always comes before K

I would still say you need to tune. You may be able to drop it in, but even then you did some basic "tuning" on it with the FPR and adjustable cam gear.

We don't know what he wants or what he is planning on doing. If he just wants to drop in and GO I would say a Stage 1 is all he should be looking at. If he's willing to do some tuning, then skies the limit!

If a FPR and ajustable cam is considered tuning then everybody would be tuner. lol.

To the O.P Stage1 is a waste of time don't listen to otehr n00bs who don't have a clue what there talking about.

Look at exospeed and bisimoto.

There is no "best cam". Every situation is different.
