Hi cam guru's - I mentioned this in my 4.6 head thread but I thought I'd start a new cam-shaft related thread as most of the cams mentioned in other threads here are UK or USA based manufactures. I've got nothing against that but in this time of slow/unreliable freight I'm only looking at cams in stock in Australia.
These two cams have been recommended to me by my local Land Rover expert as they don't have any 3.5 or 3.9 cams in stock. The stage 2 has slightly more lift and duration on the exhaust.
Cam1: CAMSHAFT ROVER V8 (STG 1) DUR@050 204/204 V/LIFT 450/450
Cam2: CAMSHAFT ROVER V8 (STG 2) DUR@050 204/214 V/LIFT 450/474
I spoke to the manufacturer on a Friday afternoon and he said they're basically the same - I think he had had a long week lol.
Can anyone here tell me what effect the slight difference in exhaust specs would translate to in the real world? Any other Aussie cam recommendations?
Muchly appreciated.

Ohh - looks like a place in NSW still has standard cams. If I have standard valve-springs is it just safer to stick with a standard 3.9 cam into the 3.5?
