Re: summit cam (dogboy)
I am currently running a Summit 1101. Of course, I change cams more often that some people change their underwear . . . :-)
I am VERY pleased with the low end. Pulls strong through normal street RPMs . . . a good deal for the money . . .

Re: summit cam (dogboy)
i had a set of stock 882 castings with stock replacement valvesprings in it good for 500 lift.that cam i believe had around 442 to 465 lift right?you should be fine if your springs are in good shape.Im always trying different cams and brands all the time and the summit cams for the money were pretty decent.

Re: summit cam (pats406nitrovette)
I would think twice about a generic part like that. I bought a summit electric fuel pump and after returning it for the second time for not working, I bought the holly instead.
Is the came made in america?
Is it worth saving 20 or 30 bucks.
