what cams do people put in their manual AU's these days?
Heard the 1636 wade gives some nice low down, which i'm after becuase i just like grunt off the line (e.g. 0-60km/hr). I think she goes fast enough over 4000rmp. I've done heaps of searching, but every seems to be talking about e series more than AUs. 977b is the most accepted, Correct? Bit of a conservative on the fuel as well, so I don't want power at the expense of decent economy. can people with AU (hp) motors tell me a bit about what's worked best for them? (have usual mods - exhaust, intake)

no offence to wade cams , their service was top notch when i got a cam for my auxr6hp
it made no difference at all  i hope the new cams are bettersure i did not do a dyno before and after but felt nothing swapped the cam back to original and car still went the same the cam was put in another stock au ( futura i think it was )and that owner noticed a difference also can you still buy the shims?

i have a camtech cam, its a billet and not a regrind so no shims required! mine is ct007842b profile! i got 185 kw at the wheels (with intake exhaust and a tune) however to get his power i run at about 16l/100.
this is what i have to give you an idea of what it did for me
