That depends on what you mean by 'aggressive'. The higher lift and short duration makes for a much more aggressive ramp profile than any of the HKS cams, which should improve spool characteristics and midrange response.

You are correct in that they do not appear 'aggressive' when it comes to effective duration. Allow me to correct myself in that they should be expected to show shorter duration at 0.050" as opposed to the 1mm (0.040") measurements commonly used for import cams. While the true effective duration isn't quite as short as I indicated above (apologies for any confusion) however (and FWIW, Revolvers and especially the JUNs appear to have longer valve timing) if that proves to be of any real, measurable advantage for most setups remains to be seen.

FWIW

the cosworth cams are now advertised as

264 for the M1 10.2 lift
272 for the M2 11.0 lift

since their previous terminology was a bit confusing.

And its probably somewhere around the same power between the M2 and the BC282. I would switch the GSC S2.
