Now that sounds like fun.

Thanks for the offer but I am going to give FTI a shot.

I go to the dyno this Friday at 4:00pm I hope if I send FTI a current dyno, vehicle weight and mods that I can get a cam that will let me take advantage of these high dollar heads I have.

My 1/4 mile would be a very low 12 if I were closer to sea level. I am going on a road trip next year to a track were the conditions dont very from 3800-5400FT

If you're running John's heads (CANFIELD), then Jay is the guy to talk to.

Need to be careful of what John calls "long winded" cams. Volumetric Efficiency increases with RPM, so cam manufactureres like to hang the duration out there. NOT a good thing if you're not winding her up.

I'm running a "custom" Cam-Motion cam, and I have NO complaints!!!! None at all!!!

We're running a Cam-Motion cam in both of our cars (333 cid is a hyd solid, 347 is a solid roller) and both motors SCREAM!

Like Jeff said, my car (347) pulls HARD at 7500 when I shift. The other car (333) pulls all the way up to 7000.

Just have to tell Cam Motion that it's a "race" car. They're a little lenient (sp) when it comes to the street.

If you're running CANFIELD heads, CALL JOHN and ask him!!!! He won't steer you wrong!

Who does "Jay" work for?

When I ordered the cammotion custom cam I told them it was a street car. Thats why I sold the cam.

Now the car is a track only car. It can drive on the street but noone would put an inspection sticker on it.

Also the cammotion I ordered had .543 lift on the intake. I have 2.02 intake valves and i thought that it may have been too big.

$370.00 for the cam
$30.00 "cam doctor" fee for him to tell me what I need
$20.00 shipping
__________
$420.00 vs. $345.00 from FTI

"Cam Master Jay" is way more expensive than Ed curtis at FTI.

I guess I need to do more research to see if he is worth the extra cash or not.
