Who all has the 9100 series of the SoCal cams and what are your thoughts? Street drive or is it just a competition vehicle?

Looking to upgrade my cam next year and looking to start acquiring parts this summer.

It depends upon each application but with that said I would not run one on the street. I was disappointed in that aspect if it. There is a better street cam available.

I completely agree with Shane. I hated mine on the street and if you have to tow anything it's of course even worse. That being said, it makes lots of power up top.

I agree with these guys. I have a truck at the shop with a 9100, and I'm about to swap it for a 6480AF to wake it up some on the bottom end.

I am running a 3000 stall with an S475 no plans of ever towing anything it'll see 50/50 street/drag racing. My Randys stage 1 isn't enough so I was looking into the 6480 and 9100 leaning towards the 9100.

I didn't have the 9100 exactly, but I had a big cam similar to it. I ended up redoing the motor with a smaller cam, and there was a noticeable difference on the street. It LOVED 3000+ rpm and was most efficient at higher rpm's which made street driving have high egt's and smoky if I didn't manually shift. The cam I have now is similar to the 6480 and I am much happier.
