You talking about the ones on ebay? $500 shipped for used cams is friggen outrageous... I am pretty sure you can still get the HKS 264 and 272 brand new for around $580-600.

I dont think $500 is that bad.

I am running 8.8mm lift on stock everything, i dont think that little bit more matters. Once you get 9.5,10 plus is when you have to worry.
