Yeah it's KL31 or KL01. I have KL01s but I can't find KL31s anywhere...

i think the only big difference is it changes the power band higher up in the tach with the KL31s

yeah sorry its kl-31 cams. So then its not going to make any differnce with the cams? I still say my old KF-ZE pulled alot harder. My KL-ZE lags very bad in first and second gear then goes on third though. I'll still using the K8 intake mani and K8 ecu. I've tried the KL-07 ecu and alittle better but it still slow on first and second gear. Are curved neck ZE's high end power only or what?

from my understanding most curved neck motors (KL01 cam) make their max torque about 500-1000 RPMs sooner than KL31 cam motors

yeah most high power..but when I had my k8 IM on my ZE, it was like if the car was lagging like you said...I would still suggest to you to get the millenia manifold

I have the millenia mani but couldn't use it because I had to send back the throttle body cause it was all bent up from shipping and also the fuel rail is cracked. My exhaust system is stock except for a punched out cat and a muffler. I was thinking about getting a 2.5 custom bend from the cat all the way back to the muffler.
