And if it's not about cost???

What do some of you think of those who put cammers into their FSVT? Does that make him an anti-purist? It's just an engine, that is above-par not spectacular (stock powerwise), has less aftermarket as Hector reminded and spins bearings, oh and can be sold for a decent price still.

I say, many people love the engine, me included, so sell the svt engine and pick up a cheap zetec, rip it apart and go svtcuervo crazy on it.
