This is a big no no in my book. IMO you should never install a cam in a race engine without degreeing it. And how can you degree it if you don't know the specs. You need to know when the valves are supposed to open, and what lift and duration it is supposed to have at a certin position of the crank. Without out the specs and knowing where to degree it to you are puting all your trust in Anderson, and your timing set. 9x out of 10 it will be dead on, but there is that 10% that there will be something off and the need to get a set of offset cam sprocket dowells to get it all back on track. This will be critical if you ae in a limited class where every hp counts. How will you know this without the specs Also there is allot more then lift and duration that will let a hydrolic cam rev as much the the anderson cams do. Ramp rates, and the spring pressure is 50% of it and the lift, duration, and valvetrain weight is the other half. If they want to keep that a secret that is fine, but i want the specs if i am to buy one from them.

This all sounds like a marketing scam to make people think that this is the best thing seince sliced bread. I'm sure the cams are good, but other people can do it just as good with the cam specs in the box.
