I am gathering parts for MY car (for a change) which I hope to start on next year. I will be building a 2.7 maybe (probably) with Je pistons. Weber carbs but not sure what cams to go with. E and 964 cams seem to be the most popular, but which is better? I would like real world opinions please. Is one better with stock pistons and one better for JE's (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/confused24.gif) Thanks for the help (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/mueba.gif)

you really should get a copy of Anderson's "911 Performance Handbook" and read the section on performance upgrades and cam selection. he's got lift and duration specifications for many popular cams, including these...

the 964 cam is a popular performance upgrade for CIS cars; that should tell you something: it's still a fairly mild, low-overlap cam. the E cam is IMO an excellent choice. i've had them in two cars and liked them.

piston manufacturer doesn't really have much to do with it, but i gather you're looking at the 9,5:1 CR choices. watch the piston-valve clearance but you should be okay.
