    2 can’t afford fuel
    3 too much power
    4 car wants to go fast

    So, solutions to these issues...
    Reason 1: Keep the car off, it's quiet. No cops.
    Reason 2: Keep the car off, you save gas.
    Reason 3: Keep the car off, no power to get used to.
    Reason 4: Drive a Prius.
    All seriousness, I drive a stage 3 cammed 5th gen and love every reason. I didn't get it cammed in hopes to get more than 16-20mpg combined.

    I've read through a lot of these comments and _so_ many viewers have missed his point. He's not giving you reasons to _not_ cam your car. He's giving reasons why it's not the greatest choice for your _daily_ . I'm sure the sub-text is "By all means, cam that bastard into a monster if that's what you like. But, realize that _these_ are things you will be dealing with when going to work, the gym or to the local grocery."

      Go to the store to buy the oil and filter, jack my shit up, going under the car, pulling out some tools to swap everything, then clean up because it's not really possible to get the filter out without dripping atleast some oil on the driveway, then button everything up and pour the used oil into the old container and take it to the store to dispose of it. Yeah I'd rather pay the 20-30$ difference of someone else doing it and me checking the level after to make sure I'm happy with it.

    Your blaming some things on the cam when your tune should definitely be better dialed in. There are a multitude of factors that any competent tuner can dial in better for you. To me a couple of issues that need to be addressed by symptom I.e injection timing dialed in, spark needs revamping, idle under over to get the chop a little more refined.also dialing in your vve will help alot with transient fueling.

And modifying your car you cannot daily drive them no more!!

      @@musclebone7875 No. People should start being concerned about gearing when they get their car tubbed and start putting tall tires on it. For an automatic, a higher stall converter is what needs to be looked at when cams start getting large. If it's a manual, then a performance clutch is the answer. Gearing is to compensate for tire size.

    A cammed automatic muscle car. Yuck. Fuel cost has never been an issue for me but I can Totally relate with the car becoming lurchy at low rpm. It's annoying. When cruising slow by a park or want to keep the car quiet at night or through a parking lot and you want to be in 2nd or 3rd gear or when your T56 had fucking skip shift an you go from 1st to 4th you can't because the car jumps all over hell an wants to die. I got a 2005 CTS V with a BTR Street heat stage 3 cam.

      I have found this to be 100% correct. Just had mine re tuned, by a different tuner than the install shop that tuned it after install. Picked up 44 more whp, drivability is just like stock now, gained 1.5mpg back, and now have great power throughout all rpm range, but the performance and sound of the Stage 4 cam. Point of the story......find a real good tuner! True story!

At low speeds it jumps big time and it's definitely different and it's rhe same with it hating low speeds of below like 40 like you said and i hate low speeds and i wanna just do like 50 mph just because of it. All in all it's a great car but that stuff does get annoying and you aren't lying about the attention it gets,as a matter of fact i just had 2 guys in a truck back up a red light and asked me to hit the gas just a little so i did and they started cracking up and said,DAYUM she's mean and sounds good. Lol..She does sound damn good and look even better so yeah she's a monster of a machine and she's pushing about 450 HP.

      Jay A Lay not really..... all you gotta do is fuel up all the way. Once you feel the need to fuel up again just look at how many miles you drove and divide that with how many gallons you put in and bam you got a REAL mpg reading. What I do is I start to LEARN my cars average mpg and if something is off I know it's time to tune up.

    These are older posts I see so....the thing that's making it jerk around would be just tuning the car. Other than that you'd have to get used to driving differently otherwise you shouldn't be experiencing that. Very high lift cams are not streetable. They're ment for high rpm launches...and if your worried about gas mileage you may love to own a hot Vette but you'll never be able to afford one with that kind of thinking. Happy cruising!
