These cams feature radically new computer designed Xtreme Energy lobe profiles, engineered specifically for the Ford modular engine family. The cam profiles offer faster valve openings and more area under the curve to help promote a broad torque and horsepower RPM band. The modular Xtreme Energy cams are the most aggressive of all the engine families, which is made possible due to the unique design of the valve train of this engine. This unique valve train design allowed Comp's cam design engineers to push the limits on valve train acceleration rates while still maintaining everyday driving reliability. The cams are ground on new steel billet cam cores designed by the Comp Cams engineering team. This unique design offers an Xtremely stable valve train when used with Comp Cams Part # 26113 valve springs. SOHC-Hot street cam, needs 3.55+ gears. +2000 stall.

Here's some good info. http://www.modulardepot.com/?show=articlesdet&aid=25 With the 270-AH cams you will need to change the valve springs. I've also read that some people are having PTV contact with the agressive stage 2 cams in stock heads. You can save yourself some time and effort if you go with a little less agressive cam where you don't have to change the valve springs. By doing this you can use the AFM Cam Saver Tool that allows you to change cams without removing the front timing chain cover.
