I have the late heads with smaller ports.
I’m going with the backdated SSI exhaust,
Seems like that’s the nice safe upgrade since
I need one.
Thanks
You'll suffer from mid range torque loss. The benefit of 964 cams is rising the power band on high revs from 5500 Rpm and above. And in case of engines with small ports – here for a sufficient airflow the diameters are too small for a benefit of cams with power present on high revs.

See in this thread further below, its in german, but an online translator will make it at least a bit clear for you:

Especially this one where you can see more or less whats the approx. difference between SC and 964 cams in a 3.0 CIS engine.



The whole torque will be moved forward to higher rev areas.
