The head on falcon is warped so i saw it as an opportunity change my camshaft as well i rang wade and they suggested the 1645 AU and the guy and the head shop is fitting it and dialling it in for me. Wade cams said that it would work with a standard engine and standard springs, however the guy from the head shop called and said that it has a to aggressive lift and needs head work and springs to suit another $400 or so dollars. I wanna no if this guy is trying to rip me off or did i get recomended the wrong cam

Unless the head guy has a Cam Doctor or some other accurate way of messuring the cam he would have no idea how aggressive the cam is.
If Wade says it will work with stock springs then it will work with stock springs. |

Be a good idea to tell us what type of head it is too from your own thread - ford-4l-and-6-cylinder-f1/head-id-t90850.html .
