Default does it make a difference

i'm stuck w/ an auto tranny eg sedan and i want to build it up a lil bit since its my daily driver, (i have a project 91 hb 5 spd in the works at the same time) i was going to drop in an H22 w/ AT tranny but its too much of a hassle and will instead drop in a b18 ls when i can, but for now i want to swap cam sprockets, either AEM tru-time or skunk 2. if i do this, will i feel a difference when i'm driving even if its AT?

If youre putting all the new doodads on your old engine, whats the point anyway? Youre just going to swap it out, so save your money for putting new parts on that engine.

And you wont feel a difference if thats all youre going to have done, so theres point for that either. Save your money!

yeah, not rally a good place to start. for cam gears, the best way to get any power out of them is on a dyno, which isnt cheap, so youre better off waiting until you have more done to it, then get everything tuned at once.
