My wife pizza store has been seriously short on employees so I've been doing the "cheap labor" thing for her (however, tips have paid for a whole lot more than I was originally planning on doing to the car right now so i can't complain). There are two girls getting ready to come back from medical leave next week I should be able to start back on it then...
: : Anybody know who makes cams for Edelbrock (that is if they do not)? I'm running (when I actually get to fire it up) a Performer RPM...
: :
: : : This is just a little note on MY experiance with a certain cam manufacturor.
: : : 1st my keyboard had coke spilled so i may miss spell things.
: : : I work for a machine shop that builds engines for the other half of their business. When building we tried comp cams. we have had aprox 20 of them wear down a lobe from not being heat treated. While you may have been lucky I can't say I would recomend them.
: : : Not only do you have to change the cam, but take it all apart and clean and rebuild it some. I have had the best of luck with Crane and Crower and overall the very best of the best is ISKY... I am building a street commet and thats my choice for a cam. I don't want to spark ANY controversy, just want others to know my experiance with Cams.
: : : Please don't send out flames if you love Comp cams... It's your right to like what ever you like.
: : : ONE more note, Lunati cams are made by another company not lunati.
: : : I am not sure who is making them right now as they have switched around depending on their needs. Almost all of the cam manufacturors are making cams with really close to the same grinds.
: : : I stick with ISKY since they are just a bit more agressive and they are
: : : extreemly picky in their manufacturing process.

: : : Please Take no insult as none is intended.
