Mikes right that you will get the most benefit out of these with a bigger turbo and they won't be showing you their full potential until you go bigger turbo. That said back in 04' my buddy was running these cams on an VIII with basic bolt ons, stock turbo and meth and made 389whp and 410 torque on Topspeeds dynojet. Keep in mind thats not very impressive nowadays, but back in 04' that was pretty F'in amazing!
These are killers cams and will give any VIII a unique sound and signifgant bump in power!

I still disagree with what Mike P. has stated. That's his OPINION of course. Mine is different than his and there's nothing wrong with that. To say they aren't to be used for stock turbos/bbk/fp's line, shouldn't have even been typed.
But if you look at the specs, they are pretty similiar to GSC S2's and Kelford 272's in terms of lift and duration.
Revolver 262/264
Advertised Duration - 262 deg Int / 264 deg Exh
Effective Duration - 222 deg @ 1mm Int / 223 deg @ 1mm Exh
Lift - 11.4mm Int / 11.5mm Exh
Lobe Centerlines - 109 deg Int / 111 deg Exh
LSA - 110 deg
Upgraded valve springs required
GSC's Lift:
Intake 274 Duration 11.2mm peak lift, 107 degree Centerline
Exhaust 272 Duration 11mm Peak Lift, 113 degree Centerline
Couldn't find the duration
Kelford's 272 specs:
Inlet Duration @ 0.1mm Valve Lift : 272
Exhaust Duration @ 0.1mm Valve Lift: 272
Inlet Duration @ 1.00mm Valve Lift: 226
Exhaust Duration @ 1.00mm Valve Lift: 226
Inlet Valve Lift @ 1.73 Rocker Ratio: 11mm
Exhaust Valve Lift @ 1.73 Rocker Ratio: 11mm
Inlet Centerline @ Full Lift: 107
Exhaust Centerline @ Full Lift: 113
Look at the hundreds upon hundreds of people using those cams on a stockish setup (stock turbo or fp/bbk/etc). Of course, springs and retainers are required, but to have a FULLY built engine (pistons/rods/ported head/etc/etc) to run these cams? That's blasphemy...
