I was at the 'SAW'(local pick-an-pull) and removed a 745t head camplete with a 'T'-cam. I am going to 'P' and 'P' the head and take my time to make a head that flows better than the stock. Both heads are 530's (turbo and N/A) so the change with be a snap. As I have the 'T'cam for the cost of the head.

MY QUESTION IS: Would the removal of the 'M' and replaceing it with the 'T' show me ANY gains in the lower RPM (1000--3500) range or should I wait till I find an 'A-cam' to increase the low end pull(I have a 3.31 diff gears and LOVE the 30 mpg that it get's)

PS: fuel in Canada is now $1.10 @litre(as in 4 of this to a gallon)$1.10x4= #@&^%$
