Absolutely no argument. A faster ramp certainly makes more power. It also is harder on the valve train. They beat the valves open and slam them closed in comparison to slower, lazier ramps, so lots of times, they are noisier, even with hydraulic lifters. If it's a total 100% street car, "I" kinda want a slower, lazier ramp. Much easier on the valve train and less noisy. But you're right. If you're lookin for every bit of power, a modern grind is the way to go.
