Thanks, do you have an URL for me to check it out?

I have 3 set of cams: stock ones, JWT spec ones and then Tomeis... don't really think of getting yet another set (unless they blow the others away!)

ok here are the numbers for scott performance cams
there are 2 cams for forced induction stage one and stage two
stage one cam specs 215.@ .050 dur 403 lift 261degrees @.016 stage two cam specs 213@.050 dur 410 lift 255 degrees @ .018
the magic is in the way the lobe is design for opening and closing the valve.
its not all about lift and duration but when it lifts and when it closes and how fast. you can have the same lift and duration on the cam but the times the valve opens and closes be different, you can loose your power. as we have all heard in this world timing is everything.

Anyone want to trade a set of JWT spec cams (less than 1000 miles) and a brandnew set of Tomei 268 for a pair of FI cams like the Scotts ???

Thanks

Danny
