Will O2 sensors adjust mixture for cams?
Greetings my friends. I know a tuner is recommended when you do a cam swap, but is it absolutely necessary? Will the O2 sensors, and the ECM, compensate for the increased flow rate through the engine, and adjust the AFR accordingly? Thanks in advance for your replies.

The AFR is based on the VE's. Until the VE's are set correctly (and that can't really be done until the cam setting - IVO at least - is correct), the AFR probably won't even be close.

I would expect this question from a newb. Of course you need to re tune with a cam change.

Cams need a good thorough tuning, as I understand it, more than just AFR, but could benefit from adjusting ignition timing and everything as well. Not something you can just slap a canned power commander map on.
If you're going that far, why not pay the extra dough for a good tuner and get it running like a top?
