You won't need clocking plates, but you will need to fab a way to keep the flapper shut (tack welding the back side of it, or fabbing a bar to keep it shut like the Suby guys do.

And JWT S3 cams are the only way to fly if you want to make power, and retain OEM reliability.
i haven't heard of many ppl cracking expremes only one person I've heard cracked it, i don't really wanna sell it either.. its pretty... and your saying ill need to fab the flapper shut... only if i go external gate rite? i guess the only way id go external is what your saying but I don't wanna sell my tomei so I'm just gonna use it with an hks actuator and hopefully that works well until the day my tomei cracks. and what do u mean by reliability? Also i read some stuff on this thread of people using the isis Z32 [the one i got] will i have any problems?, Thanks.. also i have a profec B spec 2 but i might get something else, any recommendations? i like the hks EVC 6 but its a little too expensive for me to wanna waste on a BC rite now.
