Dear Customers,

The year is rapidly drawing to a close and we remain very busy for this time of year. For the first time in seven years it looks like we will celebrate Christmas in Easton, MD instead of Ashville, North Carolina. Our daughter Betty finally has enough seniority at the Grove Park Inn to take off at Christmas. Of course Victoria will want to see her high school friends at Christmas when she comes home from Elon College. While we enjoy going to Ashville a lot, it will be nice to be at home for a change.

          Don’t miss a chance to try out our newest hydraulic profiles in your mild street engines. These cams have extremely short seat timing, which promotes higher cylinder pressure, better throttle response and more torque. It is not necessary or desirable to increase compression beyond 9:1 due to the increase in cylinder pressure. Check the comparison between our 202H280 and the Isky 256 Supercam.

Overlap @ .004 with 110 lobe separation

Less overlap = higher vacuum which results in smoother idle, better throttle response, more low end torque and better fuel economy.

 

Don’t take a chance on confusing your computer, install a new Camcraft cam and feel the power yourself. Speak softly and carry a big stick.  Go with a winner; go with Camcraft.
