Default Spec a cam...

What matters is not how big but whether it does what you want it to do for you and what is the purpose you will use it for for example a competition cam can be different depending on type of track

A street and strip cam may be a bit more radical than a dd the one thing I always have it spec for the application, you'll fill out an application with all the info about your car, engine, purpose, shift points, transmission type and so on.

It's only $25. you can pay-pal take your time and fill out all the info, you can take two days and more then send it in Patrick will contact you with any question may still have or to discus incompatible parts etc.

Is best to contact him before you buy all the parts cause he may steer you in a better direction, he likes light weight valve train components.

Cams can be expensive labor intensive and down time so is important to get it rite the fisrt time and for only 25 bucks why wil anybody screw this up?

+1. I had Lethal Performance do a custom grind cam to fit the exact specs needed for my setup. It was only $420. worth every penny.
