Only the "x" grinds of the fp3 cam.

FP3 and FP3x cams require dual springs.

Re: Which cams?
The FP2X, FP3, FP3X, and FP4 require the dual springs. But Think Im set of the FP3x cams and the FP dual valve springs.

Re: Which cams?
Gross lift is after you take the rockers into effect, cam lift is just the cam. Duration is how long the cam stays open. A very important factor that is rarely included is the ramp angle, that is the biggest factor in if you need stiffer valve springs.

Re: Which cams?
Overall do those cams look like a decent upgrade from stock?

So you bought cam's without knowing if they would be a "good" upgrade, or knowing about specs?
I have Ocean Front property in North Dakota for sale, pm me if you are interested.

Re: Which cams?
I knew they were an upgrade but i just wasnt sure How good of an upgrade it was. I actually feel a lot more power up top.
