I know the Hotcam stage 1 hows more low range. I believe The stage 2 is more or less top low range power. Another thing is possible problems and if hd valve springs will help

If you have a stock engine about all you will want to run is a stage 1. A stage 2 is really more usable if you have a bigger bore or more compression. Stock it wont do all that much b/c it needs to have the engine mods to support it.

ok well stage 1 has a lot of low end. stage 2 has a lot of mid range to upper end and vary little low. what would be better for u would really depend on what kind of riding u do and mods u have.

I am not sure what u mean possible problem but i am going to guess u are wondering if u need to replace the springs. and u dont't the stock ones will work fine the. hot cams are drop-in cams so no need to change rockers or springs.

I was planning on going with a 426 11:1 and i do mostly trail riding, hill climbs, and i run around whatever tracks and jumps i come across

Then a stage 2 would be best, it will give you gains for most of the rpm band.

I agree go with the stage 2 if you are going to do a hi compression piston.

no the stock springs and rocker arms are fine with hot cams
