These are my cams
.I got them when I bought the "Irish Rally Car" ~~ at that time they were not fitted in an engine.However the guy who sold me the car,suggested they dropped "off cam" at low revs,and he therefore put some milder cams in with power from about 2800/3000rpm.
As I stated in the advert ~~ they would be the ultimate in a "Track/race" car ~~~ where the mods would not be a problem ~~ standard procedure in a "full house competition engine"
You could not run the car on the road,it would not tickover,run smooth etc.
Perhaps someone of Stan's experience and the other engine builders could advise further.

oopps sorry mate
i kinda figured
, with all the work required to the engine that they probably were not for road cars, just had not heard of the name before.
was just curious as the duration was not written (270/285 etc) as to how wild they are.

No Probs "Final Abode "
I put everything in the advert,in case someone,thought they could just fit them and time them Although quite how,they could without verniers would be beyond me 
,Likewise piston,cam carrier clearance,may not be an issue So I forewarn in case of any eventuality
I suppose it is the worst case scenario I am describing

Just had a thought,
Is there anyone on here who could tell what the duration etc is from the figures I had given to me, or better still the power band,ie when does the power "kick in" and when would it run out
