Default Cam gear questions?

How much power can you get from a cam gear swap?

Are AEM cam gears any good?

What cam gears do you guys like, or know made good power from?

You can move the power curve to a range more to your liking, and you can usually find between 5 and 8 HP, sometimes more.

Most people don't like AEM cam gears, due to the fact that they only have 3 set screws, and are documented to slip easily.

Edelbrock, and UR have cam gears with 5 screws.

Anyone know about these?

UR boasts up to 37HP with a set of pulleys and a cam gear.

yeah, 37hp probably on a heavely modified, most likely turbod car after the tuning is done with the cam gears compared to the stock tuning.
