Have any cams designed specifically for a twinscrew application?
Comp also makes Two off the shelf LSr series cams designed for screw type blowers. Im currently looking for a new cam for a twin screw setup as well, ill let you know what I come up with. The off the shelfers that comp offers just arnt doing it for me.
I always thought the specs was something that was needed! I'm curious how people degrees their cam in if there is no spec? Do you get any of the specs on these cams without a cam card?
ECS knows what they are doing. if u dont like the fact they dont give out there custom grind specs, simple solution.....
DONT BUY IT!
Or take it to a good engine shop and have them spec out the cam for you. Its not that difficult for a engine shop to take measurments off a cam and tell you exaclty what it is.

We give the specs necessary for installation, although realistically most DIY's just install them dot to dot and go, especially since most timing chains are non adjustable anyway.

Please stay out of ECS threads, thank you. If you wish to post up other cams, or places to get them, or how to scam our work, by all means do so... in your own thread.

Thanks guys!
Doug,
How critical is it to degree the cam in most typical street/strip applications?

How is knowing the specs of the cam that is going in your engine "scamming" your work? I understand you put money for R&D into this but people have the right to know whats in there car. I wouldnt advertise the specs, but it should come with a cam card that lists it after your purchase it.
I had Ed Curtis from FTI grind my last cam. I wanted a mild lope, nothing to radical but something that would pull to 7000 rpm. It did exactly as I asked from it.
He will send you the cam card as well.
They cost a little more ($450) but it is built for your combo and your combo only!
if u need specs get it spec out ,no big deal ,i had an issue with my ecs custom grind ,i wiped a lobe ,they speced the cam & welded it back ,my mouth is sealed ,i told chris i would keep it to my self

Ive done business with FTI several times in the past. Excellent Company, Howards Cams as well. 100% custom to your application.

We always do, but most people do not. If you buy a package cam kit, for instance our blower cam kit, then we know it is going to be within our window of tollances since we use the same parts over and over again. Buying a piece here and there would make me nervous without degreeing.

Ed curtis is well known and a good place to purchase a cam from, not quit as proven as our set up in the LSx platform, but do what works for you.
