Any cam that increases power within stock rev range?

What about something with a very narrow power band? Say if someone was running 4.10, 3600 stall, and 150 shot. Not wanting to go above 6200.

I will provide my $.02 on this. I've dyno'd my car both before and after the Hotcam, and in my experience the Hotcam makes nearly identical power to the stock cam below 5,000 rpm. The power lines on my dyno graphs run RIGHT through each other. I believe the poster wants a cam that will improve power in this area. The Hotcam won't provide down low.
Makes you think about the XE502 and XE503 camshafts and how their lobes might help out in the low end TQ department.

I'm going to try and track the modifications on my beater car like you did. With dyno graphs after certain mods.

I nearly got banned here for arguing with him. I did point out in a thread that he poked holes in everyone's cam discussions and theories, but his advice was only to use his camshaft service without offering any real technical input to the discussion.

That would be great. I was all about getting a cheap Hotcam for this car, but I would really like to see some low end improvement from it. We'll see how that graph looks.
