Message: [QUOTE="powerstroked08, post: 1320862, member: 8135"] Well it wouldn't be a smart thing to be giving every spec out on a new cam that is apparently performing well. The reason why it wouldn't be a smart thing is when its how your making a living and you are doing all sorts of R&D on a cam (or any specialty part for that matter) and you give the info out for ANYBODY to copy. You just f*cked yourself. Now I don't have a dog in this fight( I have RCD, Elite, Midwest, side action, and many other vendors parts on my truck) But for what reason do ALL of the particulars of this cam have to be out i the open? Does everybody here know the impact or the effects of lobe separation, lift, duration and valve timing? I mean really understand how all of this works. Honestly very few people do, and I'm not saying I'm one of them! But I do have the respect for those that do and like to learn from them. But the point is that there are several ways to make power, and this cam seems to be doing that(at least according to the power increase that was posted) Honestly that's all the info that most of us need at this point. Unless you want to get all nerdy and figure out every aspect of its design(which is cool to know and understand). But think about it does roush/yates divulge all of their info on their latest and greatest engines and what not? NO! They don't and there's a good reason for that. They want to stay AHEAD of the competition, not do all sorts of R&D and publish all of their findings for every other race shop to copy and or apply to their setup. Again this isn't my problem, but we need to understand why he doesn't want to show the entire world what he has been working on. :toast: [/QUOTE]
