I believe Crane grinds Vinci's cams, but don't think you can get a Vinci cam through Crane...since it's Vinci's lobe design, you have to go through Vinci. Does that make sense?

Whats the design or purpose behind it? Only curious because I've heard the LS1 is intake limited, or it plays the part as the restriction.

Roger,
I still haven't grasped your logic on adding more exhaust duration to provide a fatter power band.
Few questions:
-How does more exhuast duration make tuning easier? I've always heard the other way around, where more exhaust duration causes more misfire codes.
-Again, if we are intake limited, why add more exhaust duration?
-Shouldn't the valve events match the head flow and the users requirments?
I'm just lost on most of your cam specs, where almost all favor 4* or more of exhaust duration. Hopefully, you don't take my questions the wrong way. I've heard of good results and am trying to figure it out.
BTW:
Would it be possible for you to list the valve events of say the asp kicker?
Thanks.
