Hey I found someone selling a nearly mint '01 ACR Cam (magnum engine) and was wondering if I would gain anything by replacing my cam with it???
Anyone have input??
Would I need to put on ACR/RT valvesprings??

'01 magnum cams were the hottest cams ever used in a neon from the factory. Itll be good for some noticable gains.
Remember to change your valve springs to magnum or crane valve springs too.

Am I correct in assuming I need the w R/T ones??
I will need 2 springs and 2 locks right???

You will need 16 springs. One for each valve. You wont need any locks or retainers, you can reuse your stock ones.
And yes. the W/ RT ones.

what can you rev to safely with the magnum cam and springs?
what kind of gains can you get over basic (i/h/e) with a crane 12 and mag springs?

The theory is the ACR/RT springs can handle 8k rpm without failure...
