I think it is supposed to get you about 10hp. It is $2,500 for the camshaft

That is good news. What is the estimated price/hp gain?

While we expect them to be great, I really can't say until we test our prototypes. As soon as dynos are available, I will post them with more information.

Thanks

I look forward to your new camshaft. Can you tell me what the stock duration @1mm lift is, and the total lift.

Plus have you measured the intake and exhaust opening and closing points. Can you share this info with me?

Thanks,

Jeff Short
