Comments: Two schools of thought as always, some say good, some say bad, or rather, have had trouble with them. There's setting them up properly, obviously raised loadings through the valve-train (everything in good condition?), maybe slight tweak to carb jets or emulsion tube if non-injection, injection should take care of increased mass-flow etc.
Increase in performance? Of course, that's the idea...

Would I? No, unless whole engine was rebuilt with performance in mind from the ground up, even then I'd do a bit more research Vs a different cam.
