Cam Question
Looking for a Cam I have ordered from Comp Cam but I am tired of waiting it's been a month and still no straight answers as to when the cores will come in. This is the size of Cam I purchased 230/234 on a 114+2
What else is compares to this, any ideas?

my friend just ordered a 230xfi /234xer114+1 and it took less than a week for him to get it. something doesn't seem right. I will say that mine took almost a month though due to holiday's etc. That's what I was told, but it seemed like they forgot about my order or maybe hadn't received it until I called and asked.

Yeah something definitely doesn't seem right. Me and rskeller have both been waiting a month for our cam from comp and we have found out that 2 other people that ordered after us have gotten their cam from comp already.
rskeller did they charge your card for the cam yet? And who did you order the cam off of? (Name of Salesman)

I had Campbell Auto here in Edmonton do the ordering for me, he is doing the install. He has been passing the information to me. Here is a copy of the last email I got from Comp Cam, the sales man is very vague in his responses, very poor customer service.

the Part # at the top is the core number. If that's the one that you've got, you're waiting on a 1 bolt.

I put in my orde for the exact same cam (one bolt core) and was charged over a month ago..... I ordered March 23rd, and still have no idea when it will show.
Anybody know where I can get the three bolt cam sprocket and the 3 bolts to convert to this set up?

I just got an updated from my customer support guy and he said
Andy,
If I'm not mistaken, it shows that our vendor shipped some to us on 4/30, so we should have them this week.
Thank you,

I sure hope so.
I think our orders should be top priority once the cores are in comps hands. Then we should all get overnight shipping... for free. Guy talked to comp and they said their turn-around is 1 day now so there is no reason why we shouldn't have our cams by this weekend.

Another update as of 1:30 today
Once he replies again I will let you guys know whats up.
Hey Andy,
They should be here, but they're not showing on the computer. So I'm in the process of finding something out. As a heads up if you email me back, I'll be away from my desk until I find something out for you. I'll let you know as soon as I get some info.
